At 2700 rpm, the idea that gas flow restrictions in a manifold are a significant source of losses is ludicrous provided the manifold is adequately sized, you might just as well make it out of water pipe with right angle elbows. *

If you were running Four valves at 5000 rpm with much higher gas velocities it would be different.


* this begs the question of equal air fuel distribution which is a different matter.
