Gavin asked: ?? Is their a formula to work out flow rates from square area?? Not really. It depends on so many factors. Just to give an idea I achieved a 40%...
. . . and the final wall thickness in the groove is how much ? Take a 2" thick board and try to bend it. Then take a 2" thick phone book and try to bend...
Using a combination of rough calculations of flow AND some actual flow bench numbers, the 40mm carb will flow about what a pair of 28mm carbs will. A 44mm...
In terms of theoretical physics there is a maximum flow through a cross-sectional area based on the properties of the fluid flowing through it, related to...
In terms of actual dry air flow testing there are generated real air flow numbers through a given carb or port. These numbers are relative considering the...

V4s in such a hish state of tune can be found on GP bikes like the Desmosedicci or HRC V4 etc. I'd lean towards Ducati on that one. I wonder if those disks...
