Exactly. Apart from the show side of it, big hp carby V8's sometimes have great big in-let runners that stretch from the valley right through the bonnet. Looks hell bogan spec but the whole idea is to give the fuel more time to mix thoroughly with the oxygen before it gets sucked into the combustion chamber. More torque = bigger skids

One of my favourite videos on how good mixture is achieved, ordinarily there would be a cover over the top of the inlet plenum.
