George,

if your are talking about the 13B, I agree with Paul. I think I will go
considerably over 50mm, or equivalent cross section.
This issue will not come up for me any time soon.

ps: Paul, sorry for that. I just recovered from a powersupply failure.

No problem Richard.--

Richard,
Understood, I merely made a suggestion of a minimum size,  also I forgot for a moment it was the 12A rotor housing.

I have some calculations on the inlet side if you wanted to examine that you can reach me directly on lendich@optusnet.com.au it's a work in progress, but I can pass the whole document to you, it also has some carby information as well.

I would like to see them George as I imagine some others would.
