Default Stock 241 intake runner vs. 243s

What is the diff between stock 241 intake runner size and 243s. 241s are small and hence better for low-end when ported but what are the specs?

I think I've lost faith in "smaller is better for lowend". I know this should hold true as an engineer, but look at the torque curves generated by the L92 heads. Baffles me...

No, the 243 heads are better designed all around. Plus the smaller chamber will do more for you in terms of torque than the runner size will.

Combustion chambers are:
243: ~64cc
241: ~66cc

Not sure on intake runners.
