I’d like to see what a 5” down to the 102mm tb does to the velocity head and mass flow. Id like to find that nice balance of mass flow and velocity (for the time constraint) .
Yeah I took some of your idea and started tinkering with it. It makes use of the entire lower and kinda separates each bank and turns it from a bathtub to a tunnel ram.

Got a plate to try out with water/meth injection and using the other spacer as a shear plate. Anywho though it was cool...
Also been working on some more airflow mods...I call it the Dynamic InterCooler Knapsack (TM) cause we all like DICK......but it does rearrange the vectors within the quadrants of the port, most specifically within the upper quadrant along the shear plane of the injection phase.
Upgraded the blower too

No everything else is still in pieces....I broke my shoulder earlier this year (setting off a acute gall bladder attack) and finally went to the doc...found out it was broke had surgery then knocked my self out when I passed out and slammed my head on the edge of the tub. This time was wicked I was out for a full minute my wife said and I was having a seizure from it. When I came to I didn’t know who I was who she was or where I was.(surgery and head injury set off another acute gall bladder attack) (I’ve lost 35lbs in like 2 weeks of solid mass and I thought I was legit dying) So here I sit with 4 holes in my gut and arm in a sling....nothing to do but tinker and be thankful to be alive...

It’s cool it could always be worse....I really wish I could take back the passing out and whacking my head cause something isn’t right with that but otherwise I’m great. (I’d take getting the top of my head skinned off and hitting it in another vehicle accident 20times before I do another one of hitting the edge of the tub) Glad you got through your cancer man. I’m thankful and happy to be here and hopeful we can figure out this sensation.

Some more messing up perfectly good parts:
Polishing the rollers on the lifters
Attachment 81179
Saving weight
Attachment 81180
Valves and valves tips
Attachment 81181
Roller chain
Attachment 81182
Cylinder head before breaking hard edges:

Finally got around to finishing up both cylinder heads
Before breaking hard edges on the combustion chamber. Help prevent detonation causing hot spots and give the coating a softer edge since paint is thinnest at hard edges. Those little pieces of casting flash act like mini blow torches
Chambers smoothed...I still have to break hard edges on the casting holes. If you look at the head at the top you can see the edges smoothed and bolt holes chamfered.
Just enough sanding to remove the casting flash and give the thermal barrier coating a more consistent surface for more even coverage.

So close to being finished with the crankcase. All bolt holes and hard edges have been chamfered. With aluminum flexing and expanding so much the chamfer on the bolt holes will help prevent the studs pushing up on the edge creating a micro crack that turns macro...main caps seat properly...stop a burr from forming by the stud pushing on hard edge that could prevent the head gasket from doing its job etc etc
Porting front oil crossover....I’m softening the edges on all the oil passages
