Not so much the size, as what they are made of.

Things that won't fit in the intake...bowling *****, babies (could fit if you try real hard), computer monitors, etc...will not hurt the engine either.

So, I hear when you suck a house fly into the intake that it floods your engine...So, just go through the engine flood procedures and your problem will be solved!


*Did that keep us out of the lounge?*

I think the fact that the 2nd gen intake runners are so rough and, not to mention the fact that most of us snap our throttles closed so rapidly that the chances of it getting cut in half/ripped apart negate any chance for negative effect. Any further ideas? Technical enough? Anyone care for a drawing?

Yes, if the throttle plates snapping shut doesnt get the fly, the pulsation dampner will explode and crisp it.

Only if he went for a dip in the gas tank first.
