Abstract
A manifold is provided for a multicylinder engine, particularly a motorcycle engine, wherein separate, independent passages are provided to connect separate carburetors to individual cylinder inlet ports. A plurality of such passages are provided in a single manifold casting, preferably each passage having a constant cross-sectional area throughout its length and all passages being identical in cross-sectional area and length. The actual cross-sectional shape of each passage may vary along its length due to space restriction for said manifold.
