Dan good report m8
Definately intreged about the 3 three finger boost port I believe the rb250 has the same port but still keeps the bridge
Exhaust ports.

Watch this space as I will hopefully have one on the table next weekend, & Ill do a report on the RB250 as you have done Dan. :twisted:

Word of WARNINING if stroking the RB's watch the boost port fingers ,as the bottom ring can catch under the finger in the port :o . Make sure you check this ;)

As for the manifold definately weld it up and reshape without any hesitation ,Ill put some pics on here later. But I think Jason has already shown this.on old forum :!:

Also I will show what I have done to a RB225 once its finnished, you have seen some photo's but they are I can asure you work un-finnished :roll:

Smiffy
If its made of Metal Fettle it !!

Just a question is the exhaust port manifold standard flush to the barrel or kinked at an angle like the other RB kits ? as i was looking at the exhaust you have for it
Has a mind full of useless s**t and isn't afraid to use it !

Am I right in thinking that the inlet manifold is exactly the same as the RB22? I though that they may have made it to suit a smaller carb, but then again I suppose everyone would have just modified it to suit a 34 /35 mm carb.

The reason being that as the exhaust cracks opens the initial blow down doesnt go out of the port straight but at an angle of say 40-60deg then as the port opens it straightens towards the 10-15deg.

So to help that first pulse flow without hitting the opposing exh pipe side wall the ports are angled.

I believe this is the one major thing Terry shepherd wished he had done with the TS1 barrel
