Abstract
A cylinder head assembly having a cylinder head and an adapter. The intake cavity of the cylinder head is relatively large, and the adapter fills a portion of the space in the cavity. The cylinder head has an intake runner that decreases in cross-sectional area as it progresses inward from the entrance to the intake port. The adapter has a runner filler that decreases in cross-sectional area as it extends away from a spacer, and is inserted into the intake runner. The volume of the runner filler is smaller than the volume of the intake runner, so a cavity is left within the intake runner. This cavity forms a portion of the intake passageway that leads from the carburetor to the cylinder. The position of the intake position may be altered to accommodate clearance problems with devices in which an engine is incorporated.
