Hi there,

thanks for your replies !!
The 18in is my assumption (distance: valveseat-intakemanifold-carb-airtrumpet/cleaner ).
Actually at the swapmeet I found some "curved adaptors for the intake manifold".
~4inches long.
Those adapters fixed at the head will make it possible to lead the carb + trumpet around the central tube of my oif. One left, one right.

@GPZ
A Dyno is the best anyone can do but it ain`t cheap and none is available here

@Panda
I still have the imperial bearing on the transmission-side of the crank. I need to change that I believe.
I don`t know wether the increased lift of the new cam will fit into the case !

@Woody
Yea this sounds familar.
Wether the enlonged intake is just good enough for small band of maybe a 1000rpm I don`t know. The guy I talked to apparantly fitted a few T140`s with this setup already and he "claims" that every owner was pleased by the outcome. It isn`t a WOW-effect more an AHA.

Some modern bikes do have variable intake-length equipped with servo-motors (geez...).
Don`t nail me on this one but I believe some Ninja-Kwak bikes using it.

Don`t you get me wrong:
Personally I look at it doubtfully. Thought that someone tried it already...

Thanks
ray
