Dumb question for you folks that have used this, but what flow numbers should go in the induction area to accurately represent an Exploder intake? I'm using figures found here:
http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive/..._overload.html
It says average intake runner flow for the Explorer intake is 178 cfm, only trouble is thats just the lower intake. I plugged in 178 for lack of better input, and selected 1.5" mercury. Mostly I'm just playing around with this to get an idea of how the HO cam should compare vs the Explorer cam. So far with the figures I've got plugged in, its showing extremely marginal differences which is mostly what I expected. The torque figures seem awfully low though, like a max of 225 lb/ft of torque at 4,000 rpm so I really suspect the intake flow figures are not correct.
