cylinder matching/cylinder compression

is it correct to say the third cylinder flows the best on a stock intake manifold?

OK, whatever cylinder is the best flowing, runs the leanest, would that be correct?


Does the best flowing cylinder have the more compression than the rest? iow has more air been pushed in that cylinder than other three?

I'm trying to understand the conditions to see if using projected and non projected plugs could be used to balance the system.

Dynamic compression will be higher on the cyl with highest static compression therefore peak cyl pressures are expected to be greater and have more chance of knock. It is assumed if you place a plug in the resp cyl that displaces less area (BR8ES) you will lower the dynamic compression a little.

Would be a total shot from the hip thing

thanks C6,

Its a lost cause.

I'm waiting for the new independent knock retard per cylinder from J&S.
