2. Edelbrock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edelbrock

   Edelbrock has two facilities in North Carolina: the Edelbrock Carburetor Division in Sanford, and the Edelbrock Race Center in Mooresville. Vic Edelbrock founded the corporation in 1938 when his desire to increase the performance of his 1932 Ford Roadster led him to design a new intake manifold, [3] friends and fellow drivers soon wanted one as ...

3. Cylinder head porting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cylinder_head_porting

   The graph above shows the intake runner pressure over 720 crank degrees of an engine with a 7-inch (180 mm) intake port/runner running at 4500 rpm, which is its torque peak (close to maximum cylinder filling and BMEP for this engine). The two pressure traces are taken from the valve end (blue) and the runner entrance (red).

4. Velocity stack - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity_stack

   Short velocity stacks on a 302 cu.in. Ford FE engine in the tight confines of a Ford GT-40. A velocity stack, trumpet, or air horn [1] is a typically flared, parallel-sided tubular device fitted individually or in groupings to the entry of an engine's air intake system to smooth high speed airflow, and allow engine intake track tuning to incorporate pressure pulses created by its internal ...

7. Aircraft engine controls - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_engine_controls

   Tachometer - A gauge to indicate engine speed in RPM or percentage of maximum. Manifold pressure (MP) gauge - Indicates the absolute pressure in the intake manifold. For an aircraft equipped with a constant speed propeller, this is the most direct indication of the engine's operating power.
