That is true and the tube would have an interesting effect on the heavier fuel droplets. I am not sure, but I would bet Don Johnson spent some time on a wet flow bench developing the unique shape of his intake port and divider. My mentor passed away before I was able to get a stock Ram Air V or our billet version on his wet bench. It was a planned date, but his unexpected illness and eventual death ended the project before they spent any time on the wet bench. Would have been very interesting.
