[Diy_efi] EFI--Manifold types

[GSMFN Allmaras]

Garrett,
>>From the research I've done selecting a manifold for efi is basically the
same. The big difference is efi intakes don't have atomized fuel flowing
through them so an intake designed for efi is designed with no regard for
how atomized fuel would behave if it was present. Basically an intake
designed specifically for efi is a better choice than coverting a carb
intake if you have the option. However, for an all-out race V8 the huge
single plane works great. I'm not an expert at all, just know what's worked
for me.

Has there been a discussion in this forum regarding the effects of different
manifold types (i.e., single-plane, dual-plane, etc.) when used with EFI?
I'm planning a FAST or ACCEL system for a SBC and wondering if the same
selection criteria apply to EFI as they do (did) to carb'ed engines. I know
that venturi signal issues are gone, but are the airflow tuning issues still
relevant?

If there was already a discussion, can someone suggets a date range to look
through?

THANKS

Garrett
