How is there air traveling threw an intake if the valves are closed? It's a sealed system if there are no valves open there is no air flow. You can put pressure to the intake with the valves closed but there is no way you will ever get flow with all thevalves closed. Bending rods with a ton of boost sounds like you need better rods. Anyway Lets leave it at you build you motorthe way you want and I'll build mine the way I want since this is a pointless argument.
And that would be?Also If you want to continue this discussion how about we move it the the tech sectionas caveman is still just trying to find his manifold.
