75 degrees works for me but it isn't set in stone. try anything between 75 and 120 degrees
*edit* didn't read correctly: if you have 3 intakes then go for 120 degree sepperation

what is the angle of the intake, is the length measured from the centreline, is the length measured to the end of the flare or to the end of the intake, what is the flare length?

FWIW I calculate the minimum intake length near 14cm. Of course my intakes are typically short, so take liberty, go longer and trim to a suitable length.

I realy don't like this style engine, it looks all wrong :P Anyway, your intakes look about right. Reduce them to 16.05cm
