SC61 is drastically larger then what we are using. The S200 is a 56mm.

When you cut a piece of tubing at an angle, it makes the hole bigger than 3". That is the most retarded thing I've ever heard, if you cut a piece of 3" tubing and it all of a sudden magically became 4" becasue it was cut at an angle then the 2 pieces wouldn't line up and math/construction/steel work etc... would be fucked as we know it.

When you mandrel bend a piece of tubing, it shrinks the ID of the pipe a bit. Nope, sure doesn't, just so you know that is the point of a mandrel bend. Pinch bends decrease the size of the tubing though.

So the bigger inside diameter of the pipe maked up for the wall smoothness. just for you john, I'll find a source for this info, hold on. I'm still waiting.

It works and it works well so who really cares.

Anyways......We're hoping to get the car on the dyno this week and on a good track this weekend and shoot for some low 11 sec passes on the stock head/valvetrain. It's only a decent 60' away.

john, go buy a piece of pvc pipe
measure the inside diameter, then cut it at an angle, then measure it again, and tell me what happened.

Also, go take a 90 degree 3" mandrel bend, then find a ball thatsperceftlysized to fit through the pipe, try to fit it through the bend, wont go through.

Joel, you are retarded and your theories do not work. Cuting a pipe at an angle doesn't make the pipe any bigger. Yes it does oval the area where it was cut, giving the IMPRESSION that the pipe is bigger, but the pipe is still THE SAME ------- SIZE!!! Diameter of a pipe is measured at a 90* angle perpendicular to the pipe itself. Here is a simplified little picture for you, notice how I am measuring at a 90* angle instead of measuring at a 45* (which isn't the diameter) and it isn't any bigger? Go ahead and click the picture, I know this is very confusing.


And as for the put a ball in the pipe theory, yes, on a shitty bend it will not go through but on quality bends made with a real mandrel bender the diameter stays the same through the bend, IT'S THE ------- POINT OF THE MANDREL BEND!

And as nick said, just drop it. Your theories are retarded and flawed in every way, but due to the fact that the retarded theories are thought up in your mind, of course you will always think you are right.

Oh yea, I'm still waiting on your PROOF.
