Malossi Manifold D 16x21.5 Inclined for SHB 16

The Malossi Ø 16x21.5 inclined intake manifold is an essential component for the proper functioning of the engine. This intake manifold allows the air-fuel mixture to enter the engine through the reed valve. Its design has been studied to maximize the engine's performance, considering various factors such as volumetric, thermodynamic, and mechanical efficiency.

The volumetric efficiency indicates the amount of mixture that the manifold can introduce into the combustion chamber relative to the engine's displacement. To achieve optimal volumetric efficiency, it is essential to minimize losses due to friction along the mixture's path. The intake manifold also functions as an accumulator for the fresh charge, allowing the mixture to compress against the reeds when the reed valve closes.

In addition to these functions, the intake manifold connects the carburetor to the engine crankcase or cylinder and also plays a role in reducing vibrations transmitted from the crankcase to the carburetor, preventing the emulsion of fuel and air in the carburetor float bowl.

With its many years of experience in the field of engine fuel systems, Malossi has developed a new line of rubber and aluminum alloy manifolds for the next generation of scooters. These manifolds have been tested and developed by Malossi's experience department, both on the road and on race circuits.

Malossi's rubber manifolds feature a composite structure, with an aluminum insert embedded in a plastic material resistant to oils and fuels. This construction ensures a rigid attachment base to the crankcase and good elasticity of the manifold body.

The Malossi Ø 16x21.5 inclined intake manifold is therefore a high-quality component designed to maximize engine performance and ensure smooth and efficient driving.
