-3- very well at high speeds, it requires a very large induction pipe to do this. There are several ways of producing Duplex Induction Systems, and I should like to know whether Mr. Taub has any experience on the best way to go about the job. We have never yet made a car that did not lose crispness in low speed pick up when we put it on an induction pipe that was the right size for the top end of the power curve. Vauxhall manifolds seem to indicate that Mr. Taub has not been any more successful in dealing with the problem than we have. --------- | ||
