That=E2=80=99s reversion which is exhaust pulses running back up through =

Weber carbies do not like cams with less than 110 degree cam lob centers =

Is there more fuel present at the filter now than before ? Without the =
tail pipe you are missing out
on some amount of extraction. Greg Solow has done a ton of dyno work =
with exhaust systems
and he found that an 18=E2=80=9D, slight megaphone shape, was superior =
to just a straight pipe for HP=20
and it=E2=80=99s ability to extract so exhaust coming straight out of a =
muffler cannot be good and will
affect how the entire system performs.

Derek,
I=E2=80=99m not sure the fuel in that location tells you much. With =

Subject: Stutter at 4K rpm
Two races ago I went off track and bent my exhaust pipe enough to break =
the welded joint near the muffler. In the interest of time, I cut the =
exhaust at the muffler and secured the pipe to the frame.
At the last race, I noticed the car would backfire at deceleration which =
I am not surprised but I also noticed a stutter around 4-5k rpm.=20
At NOLA this weekend it is more pronounced and comes in when shifting =
hard from 3rd to 4th. After 5k, it clears up and pulls normally.
It doesn't seem to be affected by turns and more related to full =
throttle vs easing into the gas.
Backpressure from the loss of muffler or unrelated issues?
1300 spitfire with single Weber 40.
