[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 3127244, member: 13624"] I was privileged to spend an afternoon with [USER=15054]@swampratt[/USER] (thanks, Jeff!), and learned a lot in just a few hours. One of the things we talked about was fuel atomization. A thought occurred to me, and I have to wonder: has anybody tried actively stirring the mixture as it goes through the tunnel ram? Think of an engine-driven fan (probably several, ganged) in the tunnel, stirring to promote turbulence (and thus mixing)? Yes, it'd require a larger volume to compensate for the air drag, but it seems like a way to homogenize the mixture without resorting to a supercharger. Just a thought. Please tell me what I'm missing. [/QUOTE]
