THE INTERNATIONAL JAGUAR 'S'-TYPE REGISTER FORUM

The goal was to increase performance and spend as little as possible.

Performance was measured and modeled by flow, pressure and air temp.

The metal mesh filters were $45.00.

The velocity stacks (2) were .12 cents.

A little US ingenuity goes a long way.

A friend that is an engineer at Cummins Diesel enjoyed the video.
He agrees with both of you !

Thank you for your advice.

I have ordered Coverings for the metal mesh covers pictured of a polyester water repellant fabric with uniform micron openings that stops dust particles.

Should arrive in a couple of weeks.

No room for the MK10 box see pic.
Stock intake heats up from the header and acts as a hot box.
There isn’t path past the radiator to fresh cool air.

The filter is made up of 3 metal meshes.
The inner mesh is stainless steel 70/80 mesh. More than adaquate.

1st model is horn with smooth sides. More turbulence and has areas of high flows

2nd model is horn with dimples. Uniform flow over a greater area in the carb inlet.

Should look like the screen in this pic

Solidworks shows the effect of the bend is significant. The bend is is less of a degree than the stock plenum. I will look at what a 1 1/2” straight stack flow looks like. Their are advantages to a taller stack .. a positive effect on top end performance.

I need to run the simulation with th3 dimples.

Here is a flow simulation .gif from Solidworks.
