Playing with cylinder heads.

I mounted intake & all, then kept dusting flour over the top, while taking high resolution video-tape through the clear cyl., at all lifts & with the valve removed & inserted stem down....& that at diff deltas....I like Your witness dye technique.....

When the engine is running the entire tract is wet with fuel, like you see in videos online the way it shifts back in forth with every pulse/cylinder/intake stroke. So this is neat but I think the weight of the ink vs fuel and that wetting are factors discluded in this test..but I think its showing enough of what we already know of turbulence and detaching from the ssr at higher lifts. The air will pull a string hard to the dogleg wall/ssr..but flicking of the dykem brush shows it going the straight side and shooting/skipping the ssr to the far side and not the dogleg . I'm going to shape the turn some more. It's the middle that detaches in the smoke test at around .550 lift. I will test a non turbulent lift, like .200/.300/.400 to see where the dykem trails then. I bet we see it other places we arent currently.. but we'll see.
Heres the trend from another site on this topic. Depicting how the upper lift goes the far side while the lower lift goes the short turn.
