Description

442-bINT EC Intake Manifold – Precision CNC Machined for Honda GX200, Clone, Tillotson, Wildcat & Predator Engines


The 442-BINT EC Intake Manifold is a high-performance upgrade designed to optimize intake flow and maximize power output on modified engines, such as the Honda GX200Clone engines, and models like Tillotson, Wildcat, and Predator. This precision-engineered manifold is CNC machined to ensure a perfect match for the intake port shape on XR-28 Intimidator to factory cast heads, providing improved air/fuel mixture control and efficiency.


Key Features:

  • Precision CNC Machining: Engineered to match the exact intake port shape of your engine’s head, reducing turbulence and improving laminar flow throughout the intake tract.
  • Optimized Flow: The manifold's design enhances flow dynamics, ensuring smooth airflow and better control over the intake system.
  • Pulse Hole Location: The pulse hole is meticulously positioned to improve the vacuum and pumping action at high RPM, maximizing engine performance at higher revs.
  • Compatible with Tillotson Carburetors: Specifically designed to pair with the Tillotson carburetor, enhancing carburetor signal and throttle response at different RPM ranges.
  • Complete Hardware Kit: All necessary installation hardware is included for a hassle-free installation process.


Perfect Tuning for Performance Builds:

When tuning your engine, manifold length plays a crucial role in overall performance. It's important to understand that while intake length affects tuning, too much length can disrupt the pulse signal from the diaphragm-style Tillotson carburetor, leading to poor vacuum and diminished performance. Achieving the optimal length requires careful consideration of:

  • Intake runner length
  • Carburetor setup
  • Cam timing
  • Head porting

Achieving the right balance is an exact science and requires precise tuning to maximize gains in the desired RPM range. In most cases fitment restricts the ideal length from being achieved. 


Perfect Fitment & Compatibility:

  • Fits: Honda GX200, Clone Engines, Tillotson, Wildcat, Predator Engines with factory cast heads.
  • XR-28 Intimidator Carburetor compatibility.
  • Designed for high-performance applications requiring optimal flow and vacuum.


This 442-EVO EC Intake Manifold will help you unleash the full potential of your small engine, offering enhanced airflow, precision, and the flexibility needed to fine-tune your performance build to the next level.

FAQ

Q1: What engines are compatible with the 442-EVO EC Intake Manifold?

A: The 442-EVO EC Intake Manifold is designed to fit Honda GX200, Honda GX200 Clones, Tillotson, Wildcat, and Predator engines. It’s specifically made to match XR-28 Intimidator carburetors to factory cast heads on these engine types.


Q2: How does the CNC machining improve intake performance?

A: The CNC machining ensures a perfect match between the intake manifold and the engine's intake port. This eliminates turbulence and misalignment, resulting in smoother airflow, better control of laminar flow, and increased overall engine performance.


Q3: What is the importance of the pulse hole location?

A: The pulse hole is precisely located to enhance pumping action at high RPM. This improves vacuum and signal flow to the XR-28 Intimidator Diaphragm carburetor, which is crucial for optimal carburetor tuning and performance, especially at higher revs.


Q4: Why is intake runner length important when tuning my engine?

A: Intake runner length plays a critical role in engine tuning, as it affects the vacuum signal sent to the carburetor. Too much intake length can weaken the signal, hindering performance. Achieving the correct length based on your cam timing, head porting, and carburetor setup is essential to get the desired power and efficiency at specific RPM ranges.


Q5: Do I need to modify my engine or carburetor to use this manifold?

A: The 442-EVO EC Intake Manifold is designed to fit most engines with factory cast heads. 


Q6: Is installation hardware included with the intake manifold?

A: Yes, the 442-EVO EC Intake Manifold comes with all the necessary installation hardware, making the installation process quick and easy. Simply follow the included instructions for proper fitment.


Q7: Can I use this intake manifold for racing applications?

A: Absolutely! The 442-EVO EC Intake Manifold is designed for high-performance applications, making it perfect for racing and performance builds. It helps enhance intake flow, improves vacuum control, and maximizes high-RPM performance—ideal for mini bikes, go-karts, and other small engine racing applications.
