Greetings,
Yesterday was a great day
for UPS deliveries. I got several items that all arrived early. My
Burns Stainless collector and Spintech muffler both made it about a week ahead
of schedule, and the prop extension arrived 15 days ahead of the estimate!
Getting very motivated now :-)
The Spintech is about 14
lbs, and is built like a tank. I bet if I ran my company van over it, the
van would be more likely to be damaged than the muffler. Between the
extra weight of the Spintech, and the prop extension (6 lbs), my weight loss
estimate is down to 46 lbs.
Now to the
question. In the Racing Beat catalog, they give some figures for
lengths of exhaust primary tubes (22-25 inches), and sizes of tubes (1.7-1.8"
primary, at least 2-1/8" collector). They never mention anything about the
length of the larger pipe after the collector. As it turns
out, my primary tubes will be 1-3/4", and will likely end up about 27"
long. They will go into a collector that combines them into
a single 2-1/4" pipe. The 2-1/4" pipe from the collector to the
muffler may only be about 12". Is this long enough, or does the
length of this collector pipe matter much?
Thanks,
Rusty
