IN600 SreetInduction Dimensions, Heights and Calculating Installed Height

PRODUCT DIMENSIONS UNINSTALLED SITTING ON A BENCH
The overall heights are for the overall height of the unit if you can imagine it not on the engine but sitting on a bench, so an even tube unit assembled is 19" sitting on the bench and a staggered height unit is 20 1/2" sitting on a bench. The overall height of the unit with the tubes cut down as far as you can go is 16" overall. its kind of tricky to give you an absolute height on a specific engine because the carb pad height is not the same on every intake manifold. Go below the pictures for calculating pretty close installed height on your particular engine

Overall height - With staggered tubes - 20 1/2"
Overall height - With even tubes - 19"
Overall height (with tubes cut down to 3") - 16" (Shortest the IN600 can 'easily' be made with even tubes)

You can carry on and go shorter than 16" by useing staggered tube lengths, probably to around 15", but the absolute Shortest the IN600 can ever be made is with even tubes is 14 5/8" (requires careful trimming of ram tube tops where they converge as the tubes are lowered)

Overall height - Of assy without tubes 11 1/2" Average overall width - 7 1/4" - (8 1/2 at extreme lower edge of base")
Average length of body 15"
Average length at top of tubes 17 "

Ram Tube Stack Diameter 2 9/16"


CALCULATING 'INSTALLED HEIGHT' BELOW PICTURES







CALCULATING/MEASURING IN600STREETINDUCTION INSTALLED HEIGHT

The best way I can hopefully explain to give you an idea is, if you went to your carburetor mounting studs that hold your carburetor to the intake manifold and then, at carb mounting surface height measure outward from the stud (out across the engine toward the valve cover, ie imagine 'the from fender to fender way' ) about an 1 1/8" to 1 1/4" from the center of your carb mounting bolt, then drop an imaginery plumb line down to the top of the intake manifold port runner in that vicinity, and then make a mark here. This is where the overall height figures would pretty much be taken from, it is from this point that you can measure the distance up to or through your hood to give you an idea of the height of the unit above your particular engine when mounted. For example an even tube IN600 as supplied would be 19" above this point and a staggered IN600 would be 20 1/2" above this point.

Now if the tubes were cut down so the IN600's overall height was made as low as it could 'easily' be made its overall height from this point would be around 16"

You can carry on and go shorter than 16" by useing staggered tube lengths, probably to around 15", but the absolute Shortest the IN600 can ever be made is with even tubes and is 14 5/8" (requires careful trimming of ram tube tops where they converge as the tubes are lowered)

The above way of measuring things up is the most accurate way of figuring the installed height when there might be a height restriction or a hood or whatever in the way.

You should be able to get a get a pretty accurate measurement doing it this way


SHIPPED WITH A 2 1/2" HIGH AIR FILTER ELEMENT
You can change air fiter element heights inside the IN600 when installing, you can go to a lower 2" filter element if your intake manifold carb pad is a up around the 5 1/2", or even a taller 3" element which can be more desirable in larger engines but you will need a manifold lower carb pad height of around 4 1/2" or below, this option can also be used in the installation to compensate for different carb pad heights on the many different manifolds but REMEMBER AIR FILTER HEIGHT DIFFERENCES WILL NOT CHANGE THE actual OVERALL HEIGHT OF UNIT.


HEIGHT OF IN600 ABOVE CARBURETOR NECK
Below is the height of the unit above the carburetor neck (where an air filter would normally sit on) with a 2 1/2" filter installed (as shipped). This measurement is not necessarily the height that you can determine for the finished installation through the hood because in some installations you may have to put a spacer under the carburetor to raise it during the installation if your manifold has a low carburetor pad height. Measuring IN600 installed height 'section above' is better for determining finished installed height

From Carburetor neck to top of IN600 with 'even tubes' 13 1/2"

From Carburetor neck to top of IN600 with 'staggered tubes' 15"


MEASURING FROM CENTER OF CARB TO FRONT AND BACK

When the StreetInduction is mounted onto the carburetor

The basic measurement from the center of the carburetor to the front of the base is approximately 7".

The basic measurement from the center of the carburetor to the back of the base is approximately 8".

These measurements are taken at the lower part of the StreetInduction base area.


THE TUBES ARE:

2 9/16" Diameter Aluminum

Long tubes 7 5/8"

Short tubes 5 7/8"

* Shortest that tubes could physically be cut to 3"

With the ram tube tops on they are

Long tubes 10"

Short tubes 8 1/2"

Tubes then insert into induction body 1", so their effective length sticking out, with the ram tube tops, is 9 3/4" for the long tube, and 7 1/2" for the short tube.


STAGGERED OR EVEN TUBE ARRANGEMENT

The tube lengths as supplied with the StreetInduction are 4 long and 4 short, If you want to run an even system you just cut the 4 long ones down to the same length as the short ones.

If you have already decided that you want to run an 'even tube' setup let me know and I will ship it this way so you don't have to do the cutting.

If you are undecided, you can leave the unit to be shipped with the 4 longs and 4 shorts and then when you get it you can put the 4 short tubes in the front and have a look and see if you like it like that.

The ram tube tops just slip on nicely so you can play around with the desired height and once you have decided on finished height, you then use clear silicone to fix them permanently to the tubes.

Don't forget to spend the time to carefully wipe the tubes clean from excess silicone and finally use a solvent to fully finish clean things up.
