Cylinder Head inlet tract dimensions.

#1 Post by Carboy0 » Sat Nov 06, 2021 4:55 pm

Can anyone supply me with the dimensions of the inlet tract at the inlet manifold face please? I can see from pictures online that it’s pretty much circular, but what diameter is a 219016 inlet tract please?

A bit of research on the FIA’s homologation papers shows 1.25” diameter, but as it’s at an angle (9.5 degrees) the opening is slightly larger.

If you don't mind waiting until tomorrow (Monday) evening Chris, I can check the measurement on a spare 219016 I have?

Thanks yes that would confirm the Group 1 Homologation papers, as they originally related to the Mk1 2.5 PI.

Follow-up question has anyone measured the length of the inlet tract in the cylinder head, from the manifold face to the inlet valve seat.

If you are wondering why I’m asking all the strange questions, I’m trying to workout the optimal length for an inlet manifold. There are calculators available, but there answers are calculated from the inlet valve seat to the individual runners opening into the inlet plenum.

Sorry for the delay Chris...
33mm or 1.29931 inches at the face.
Hope that helps
