Hi Allen.

My comments apply to spending time and money on any bolt on component where=
 the existing fuel and ignition systems of the vehicle have not been optimi=
zed.

Most high speed roughness issues are due to a combination of worn advance s=
prings and inaccurate carburetor balance at speed.

Of course, the MGB adapter plates offer an improvement over flat pancake fi=
lters. They are available used, cheap and are a good way to go with the sli=
p on K&N filters.
My comment was addressed at the question of spending a chunk of cash on stu=
b stacks which offer a minor improvement to high speed air flow, when most =
owners don't cruise above 3500 rpm because the motors are shaking themselve=
s to bits due to basic tuning issues.

Gene, I'm talking about the "stub" stacks - so designed as to fit inside th=
e filters.

Kelvin, Do your comments apply to the "adaptor plates" (illustration #54 in=
 the Moss catalogue  http://www.mossmotors.com/Shop/ViewProducts.aspx?Plate=

I respectfully disagree that more air =3D more noise by default. "Noise" to=
 a mechanical engineer (or most any engineer) is an undesireable by-product=
 of inefficiency, i.e. whatever is causing the noise is sapping energy from=
 whatever the machine is supposed to do (unless it's job is to make noise).=
 Having said that, stub stacks should reduce noise -all else being the same=
 - because the efficiency of the system is increased.

To that end, Allen opens up the issue of Bernoulli. In our carbs Bernoulli =
is working hard for us at the piston/bridge, not the inlet throat. Without =
some kind of "stack" Bernoulli is screwing with us at the carb inlet as the=
 "apparent" inlet diameter gets smaller due to the air having to make a har=
d 90-degreee turn... turbulence is also introduced before the piston/bridge=
 which is not a happy thing for nice even fuel induction.

Those two reasons are what makes the mixture "change" when you put a stack =
on. Not more air, per se, but quality of air flow.

If the carbs are tuned again to compensate for more air to the inlet, then =
more power should always be the result. If more power is "Better", then the=
 answer is yes. But you must adjust for more airflow to get a more better r=
unning motor..ie more air will need more fuel too if a result is to be more=
 power. Maybe a new, slightly richer needle is the ticket to heaven. I know=
 the K&N filter people caution that their filters flow so much more air tha=
n the usual paper ones, that a richer needle, or jet, or slight enrichment =
adjustment may be desirable for best running.
Of course all this extra air flow is also likely to create more inlet roar =
under acceleration. Is that "Better" or not???
I personally run the MGA cleaner assemblies rather than the Magnette one fo=
r better access to the carb adjustment screws for keeping up with summer 10=
0 degree days now swinging to winter 50 - 60 degree days and the resultant =
changes in idle speeds due to cooler, denser air, and the need to richen th=
e mix by about 1/8th of a turn.
MG put on the big old ugly oil bath filter for better engine life in a vari=
ety of dirty dusty operating situations around the world, and for more civi=
lized operation in a quieter manner. Their true race motors ran with veloci=
ty stacks and no filters usually.

I'm cautiously venturing beyond my paygrade here, but are we not talking ab=
out the Bernoulli Principle: stating that as air enters a conical tube the =
air pressure is maximized, but as the tube diameter conically diminishes, a=
ir pressure decreases as air speed increases inside the carb.  Without a co=
nical stub stack, there is no acceleration in the air entering the carb inl=
et.  How much lift would we get from a cross-sectionally flat airplane wing=
-top with a squared-off leading edge?

That being said, how can the original Magnette intake plenum perform any of=
 this function? Same question for the intake plenums on T-series cars. I wo=
uld think they would be Bernoullian disasters.  Would a Magnette engine alw=
ays run better with stub stacks rather than the original plenum?

Curious in Michigan.

What is a stub stack? Would it allow for a filter that lies closer to the e=
ngine than a regular pancake filter?

Hi everyone,

I'd like to get a pair of 1.5" H4 stub stacks and I've tried emailing Steve=

So... from a light scour of the internet there appears to be two types avai=

$32.50 ea -http://www.aptfast.com/ShowItem/101221%20Billet%20Alloy%20Stub%2=
0Stack%20SU%20HS4.aspx
$57 pair - http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-RL1396ALT

I've excluded the K&N ones as they are very rough, by all accounts.
Are there any others that people would recommend?

They're going to fit inside K&N filters that are 2 1/8" thick.

regards,
