There are so many misconceptions that have been brought up in this discusion it 
would be impossible to address them all. 
Air, water and our cars do not like to make tight 90 turns. When you go around 
a corner in your MG you make a nice radius, not an L. If you did bad thing 
would happen. Experiance teaches us we can not trun on a dime or we will hear 
the crashing of metal as your car rolles over. The same is true of air flowing 
into our carburators. The air crashes togeather causing swirling and blockage. 
Velocity stacks work by increasing the inlet track length, eliminating 
turbulance and improving air flow. I almost all cases they will help low end 
power, as most intakes are way too short. They are designed to fit under the 
hood, be inexpensive and allow an air filter to protect the engine. VS also 
provide better mixing of fuel and air.
More air flowing through the same size carb usually requires leaning the 
mixture, not making it richer. Higher vacuum is created with more air flow 
enriching the mixture. Bigger carbs reqiire larger jets because there is less 
vacuum to suck the fuel up and out.
Most veloicty stacks on the market are very poorly designed. They have too 
large an inside diameter and/or to short and do not have a proper radius. The 
radius should wrap all the way around.
A proper VS can have other benifits as well. I was lucky to work for one of the 
top motor flow experts when I was younger. He showed me a lot of tricks on his 
custom built flow bench. Since then I have done cylinder heads for many AMA 
national champions like Kenny Roberts. I have been able to almost double the 
air flow on a head without increasing valve size. More then double with larger 
valves. 
Most performance mods come at a cost. Ie you lose bottom end to gain top end. 
But with good air flow that is not usually the case. Proving better air flow 
will usually help throughout the power range.

Kelvin - your point is well-taken. Are you saying that even if everything else 
is spot-on, it's still not worthwhile to mess with velocity stacks for those of 
us who spend most of our lives below 3500 rpm?

Just my 2 cents.  The extra noise from a fan or an engine is just the noise 
made from  air movement.  Though our engines do make more power at the higher 
rpms (thus more noise) it's actually not as efficent at processing the air 
movement as it is at a slower speed.  I believe that the most efficent engine 
in the world has an 8 foot stroke and maxes out at102 rpm.  It's most efficent 
speed is 100rpms.  That gives plenty of time to extract all of the engergy from 
the fuel/air misture.  When the heater fan is turning at 3 times the low speed 
it is not moving 3 times the air, just moving more air.  Noise is just unused 
energy. 

 

In my case I really don't care one way or another.  I have pancake air filters 
with no air flow enhancements.  A nice throaty sound from a MG exhaust is a 
plesant sound no matter how it gets there.

The intake roar doesnâ??t bother me in the least nor does a nice hum from the

If you run the little stacks, aren't you subjecting the fuel/air mixture to 
whatever is IN the air?  In other words, you can't run the stacks and an air 
cleaner, can you?

I respectfully disagree that more air = 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 hard 
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 â??Betterâ??, then the 
answer is yes. But you must adjust for more airflow to get a more better 
running 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 than 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 â??Betterâ?? or not???

I personally run the MGA cleaner assemblies rather than the Magnette one for 
better access to the carb adjustment screws for keeping up with summer 100 
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 the 
mix by about 1/8th of a turn.

MG put on the big old ugly oil bath filter for better engine life in a variety 
of dirty dusty operating situations around the world, and for more civilized 
operation in a quieter manner. Their true race motors ran with velocity stacks 
and no filters usually.

I'm cautiously venturing beyond my paygrade here, but are we not talking about 
the Bernoulli Principle: stating that as air enters a conical tube the air 
pressure is maximized, but as the tube diameter conically diminishes, air 
pressure decreases as air speed increases inside the carb.  Without a conical 
stub stack, there is no acceleration in the air entering the carb inlet.  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 would 
think they would be Bernoullian disasters.  Would a Magnette engine always run 
better with stub stacks rather than the original plenum?

 

Curious in Michigan.

Depending on length it can produce a much smoother flow, some say a bit of a 
ram effect which increases power and torque . Longer stacks as in longer 
runners means more torque while shorter ones mean more power.  Not lots, but it 
all contributes to a freer flowing intake which helps your freer flowing 
exhaust to make a bit more power/torque and slightly better fuel economy.  You 
note vintage racers usually have anywhere from2.5 to 6 inch stacks. Some with a 
stocking for a coarse filter, most just hoping nothing of consequence enters 
the throatâ?¦ I have a set of 2.25 inch stacks in my 3.25 inch K&Nâ??s on my 
MGB and they seem to help. Just the ho hum stock setup on my Magnette.

What is a stub stack? Would it allow for a filter that lies closer to the 
engine 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 Ash 
several times to see if he would make some more, but I haven't got an answer 
from him.

So... from a light scour of the internet there appears to be two types 
available at a reasonable cost:
$32.50 ea 
-http://www.aptfast.com/ShowItem/101221%20Billet%20Alloy%20Stub%20Stack%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.

with summer 100 degree days now swinging to winter 50 - 60 degree days and the

 cautiously venturing beyond my paygrade here, but are we not talking about the 
Bernoulli Principle: stating that as air enters a conical tube the air pressure 
is maximized, but as the tube diameter conically diminishes, air pressure 
decreases as air speed increases inside the carb.&nbsp; Without a conical stub 
stack, there is no acceleration in the air entering the carb inlet.&nbsp; How 
much lift would we get from a cross-sectionally flat airplane wing-top with a 
squared-off leading edge? 
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>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 
would think they would be Bernoullian disasters.&nbsp; Would a Magnette engine 
always run better with stub stacks rather than the original plenum?</div>

 on length it can produce a much smoother flow, some say a bit of a ram effect 
which increases power and torque . Longer stacks as in longer runners means 
more torque while shorter ones mean more power.&nbsp; Not lots, but it all 
contributes to a freer flowing intake which helps your freer flowing exhaust to 
make a bit more power/torque and slightly better fuel economy.&nbsp; You note 
vintage racers usually have anywhere from2.5 to 6 inch stacks. Some with a 
stocking for a coarse filter, most just hoping nothing of consequence enters 
the throatâ?¦ I have a set of 2.25 inch stacks in my 3.25 inch K&amp;Nâ??s on 
my MGB and they seem to help. Just the ho hum stock setup on my 
Magnette.</span></div>
