I would imagine they did have a why bother list, an that engine with the bass ackwards flow would have been at the top of it!!!! I doubt much of an itake charge would flow up an exhaust port, around the big bend, and through a 1.60" valve !!!!!
I'm quite sure Barris, Roth, and all the other old time hot rodders thought up a lot of ideas that never made it past the what if stage!!!!!!Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
