Pretty slick intake- pretty much like what I have planned. There's been a lot
of discussion about the location of the injectors. Mazda puts them right at
the ports on the inner runners, and about 8 inches from the ports on the
outter runners. Was there ever a concensus on the prefered location on the
outter runners for aircraft use?

I am putting mine all the way out. Jim Mederer at Racing Beat says that gives the
best BSFC but lousy throttle response. I don't need throttle response.
