Starting to look at aluminum that I will need to set up my intake.  I'm
planning to join the secondary and primary into one runner passing over
the top of the engine.....as others have done.  Initial planning a 2
1/8" OD tube (18" long) for each rotar,  therefor 3 tubes.   Plan 3"
radius bends.  Is 2 1/8" OD  (0.065" wall thickness) adequate?
Thoughts?

Thanks
