Air delivery apparatus for an internal combustion engine
An air delivery device for use in delivering air from the outlet of a turbocharger to a carburetor. The device has an intake passage extending from an inlet through an appended portion extending to an outlet. A flow divider extends diametrically through the passage from the inlet to the outlet. The flow divider provides passage into an upper channel and a lower channel. The upper channel delivers air to the front barrels of a four-barrel carburetor and the upper channel delivers air to the rear barrels of a four-barrel carburetor. The intake passage has a frustoconical shape which increases in diameter from the inlet to the bend portion.
1. An air delivery device for delivery of air from a compression device to a carburetor, said air delivery device comprising:
a housing having a passage extending between an inlet and an outlet, said housing having a bend portion and an intake portion, said intake portion increasing in diameter from said inlet to said bend portion;
said outlet end adapted to mount to the carburetor to said intermal combustion engine;
said passage having a circular cross-section extending between said inlet and said outlet end, said body having a flow divider extending diametrically across said passage from said inlet to said outlet.
2. The air delivery device of claim 1 wherein said intake portion increases in diameter at a consistent rate.
3. The air delivery device of claim 1 further comprising a pair of compression plates mounted in respective channels of said housing adjacent to said outlet.
4. An air delivery device for delivery of air from a compression device to a carburetor, said air delivery device comprising:
a housing having a passage extending between an inlet and an outlet, said inlet connected to the flow compression device, said housing having an intake portion and a bend portion, said bend portion extending between said intake portion to said outlet;
said outlet end adapted to mount to the carburetor to said internal combustion engine;
said passage having a circular cross-section extending between said inlet and said outlet end, said body having a flow divider extending diametrically on a plane across said passage from said inlet to said outlet.
5. The air delivery device of claim 4 wherein said intake portion increases in diameter from the inlet to the bend portion.
6. The air delivery device of claim 5 wherein said intake portion increases in diameter at a consistent rate.
7. The air delivery device of claim 4 further comprising a pair of compression plates mounted in respective channels of said housing adjacent to said outlet.
8. An air delivery device for delivery of air from a compression device to a carburetor, said air delivery device comprising:
a housing having a passage extending between an inlet and an outlet;
said outlet end adapted to mount to the carburetor to said internal combustion engine;
said passage having a circular cross-section extending between said inlet and said outlet end, said body having a flow divider extending diametrically across said passage from said inlet to said outlet; and
a pair of compression plates mounted in respective channels of said housing adjacent said outlet.
9. The air delivery device of claim 8 wherein each of said pair of plates further comprises an edge defining an opening corresponding to a shape of an opening of a pair of barrels of the carburetor.
10. The air delivery device of claim 8 wherein each of said plates has a pair of contoured surfaces.
