    Seriously? So many porters express the importance of keeping the fuel mixture tubling. If you forget the LSx engines still are not a direct port injection setup. I know y'all will argue this until you're blue in the face so call a few head porter or do a little online research and you will find they still express the importance of keeping the air/fuel mixture tumbling and mixed during the intake cycle. Flame all you want, I really don't care.
