ie: If you moved them further down the pipes to get these pulses timed; you'd end up with a PWTB!

It's not an 'aerodynamic' phenomena. On David's typical Chevy small-block 350, it has to do with a MACH- 1.66 shockwave-induced, reflected-rarification-scavenging event, originating at the exhaust tip atmospheric interface. And the engine must have valve overlap in order for the effect to work.
