Anyone use these? Havent heard much about them.

Picture from the cascade site.

 

[Bansh-eman]

i use them. I couldnt tell you if they make any differance. I put them on with like 6 other things all at once.

 

[dajogejr]

Same here...had 'em for 3 years now.... Of course...they were cheaper from Cascade when I got 'em...LOL.

Dammit Dave...now you're figuring out all my secrets....LOL.

 

[badassbanshee479]

I run them on mine, but like the last two said, I did um with a couple other things all at once and could not tell ya if they helped or not

 

[dajogejr]

Well...I'm sure the few ounces shaved helped us fat boys JT....LOL...

 

[badassbanshee479]

for sure! lol...

 

[BBIII]

Never even knew they had them im still running stock reed's.....??

Man i must have been under a rock for quite awhile.

Dave.. the only time you should use them is to match up the intakes to the stuffers on the VF3's.. If your using a White Knuckle intake.. the stock VF3 stuffer matches up perfectly.. but if your using a boss intake with the square opening.. then the cascade stuffer should be used. I used them with my Boss intake.. but when I got the WK intakes.. i went back to the standard stuffers..

 

[dajogejr]

To be honest, when I had my Majic Mike intakes (built in crossover, etc.) they were round, and I still used the stuffers...

I haven't had any issues, either way...

same, i used them on my White Knuckle that had round intakes, no issues either

 

[Fouledout421]

yeah.. you can use the cascade stuffers on every intake.. but its not always needed is my point.. The only time their needed is if your intakes have a square opening. Like my Boss 2 piece did.. If you put the cage up to the intake you could see where it restricted the flow. I had my stuffer all mapped and ready to grind.. I swtiched back to the VF3 stuffers when I put my white knuckle intake on,

 

[dajogejr]

Off topic...
But I can tell you I'm going to grind the intake side of my intakes a little after the season is over...open them up some more. I think there might be a little more power to be had there...

 

[Fouledout421]

Off topic again.. but wouldn't increasing intake velocity rather then intake area create more power??

Maybe a builder could chime in and set me straight.. I've always been a firm believer in intake velocity over area. Thats one of the reasons I went back to the VF3 stuffer rather then use the cascade stuffers with my WK intakes.

 

[REDLINE]

velocity vs area is going to be on a case by case basis, even the same motor ported by the same person will react differently sometimes. But as far as intake matching goes, it is always good, a ledge sticking out is bad and will cause a restriction, and even a reverse ledge will cause a swirl, so its best to have them matched up.

 

[Fouledout421]

Yeah thats kinda what I thought to.. Thas why I switched back to the VF3 stuffers.. one smooth tract all the way through.

 

[dajogejr]

Thanks for the info... I'm gonna hog mine out to match up with the stuffers...

If it hurts performance, I can always buy a new set of intakes...LOL.
