I’d like to go for a mammoth head if I can but I’m dubious about clearance problems with the rather large fat mamba pipe. Is anyone else running this setup or should I just go for the casa radial head t...

Malossi 166 overbore

Ideal rb setup

Bought a used rb22 kit with vhsb 34 and a modified jl3 exhaust, since the jl3 was missing a load of bits Ive got an nk race off a mate to stick on it for now. I’ve got a 60/110 pro porting crank an li150 box with 16/46 sprockets, if it comes to it I’ll drop down to 15/46 to get a better final drive ...
