If you are buying the part, it is irrelevant whether it is a primary or a secondary reference. It is more important to know whether the part number is fully defined, or if it is not, what additional information you need to give.
If you order an NSN, you should be issued with the part that NSN...

The first record (5310-01-333-2853) is the only one with MA13601-048-2 as a reference. The other records are close matches, not "hits".

1. MA13601-048-3 is a 5-9 reference. The 9 is the most significant...
If by NSN, you mean NATO Stock Number (called National Stock Number in the US), I might be able to help. I used to codify NSNs.
You have to know what the codes mean. The most common are...
A 3-2 reference is the prime reference. It is the manufacturer's part number who actually makes the...
Here's the best that I can do in a couple of hours whilst watching telly...
It is only the bottom layer, but I think the maximum density can only be achieved if the bottom layer is as full as possible.
A is a single sphere in a cylinder
B is the next smallest diameter cylinder
C the next...
Can you tell us the internal diameter of the cylinder and the smallest sphere diameter that you consider practical?
If the base layer is a full layer of spheres, the answer will be denser than if the base layer is not full.
A full base layer will be a function of sphere diameter to cylinder...
I'm not sure about the E90, but I have an E36 & E46 and...
Most of the ECUs hold the mileage (in kilometres). It is held so any faults can be pin-pointed. The ECU that is used to display the cluster mileage is probably the only one that is tampered with by someone.
I use INPA to access the...
No problem with being advised that I shouldn't go down a certain path. I've seen enough posts on the internet to know that not being face-to-face can cause the wrong thing to be inferred. If I thing that I've got a problem, I'll ask for confirmation before assuming the worst [thumbsup].
How...
I wish that I had done the calculations earlier...
I reckon that only 35cc would be "pushed" into the inlet tract. The volume of the inlet tract from trumpet-to-valve is 700cc.
Deltic locomotives took opposed piston engines to a whole new level...

Not very practical for automobiles, but an interesting engine to see in action.
I agree with this ATDC, but from approx 70° BTDC, the inlet valve is open and the piston is rising. From around 70° BTDC, the exhaust is closing, the inlet is opening and the piston is rising.
I think there is the possibility that "air" at 23psi in the cylinder could choose the 15psi plenum...
I've done the analysis of the valve timings. The timings are different for each variation of the VANOS* angles. These timings are for a VANOS position during a 0-60mph test
At least 2 inlet valves are open 100% (720°) of the time.
At least 2 Inlets PLUS an overlapping exhaust valve are open...
I think that I need to do a short video to explain what I am thinking. It helps me to get my head around it, as well as being able to seek advice.
At times like this I wish I didn't have variable valve timing! It would make the "problem" much easier to understand.
At the moment, I'm charting...
jgKRI - I've expanded the graph to show all 720° and the net intake value is obviously wrong [hammer].
I need to have another think about this.
I agree with your suggestion about no plenum, but I would need six new MAFs and an ECU to control the fuel.
