That is the conclusion I have arived to,
match the pipe to the engine, and leave the engine's exhaust port as it is, maybe a light polish, but by no means change the shape.
My direct supplier has had the same issue for 2 years, they hit a brick wall when asking the same question in HT Land. They won't change.
At the moment my 50cc HT runs like carp with the standard fittings, when I tried a modified/dremelled header to an approximate size of the exhaust port, I had better uphill performance with 95 octane 20:1 mix.
I'm going the way of matching the header to the port, perhaps a seperate attachment similar to the carby manifold.
I wonder if that wil fit after it's dremmeeled ?
Sparky, yes, correct if it ain't broke don't fix it is good advice, but some of just can't help ourselves, we must tinker the tinkerables, in the genes type of thing.
You may as well then say why invent the wheel when our legs walk anyway ?
And to add salt, perhaps the HT wheel is square ?
Just because something is wrong doesn't mean you have to live with it. I took a dremel and ground the pipe to match the exhaust port and modified the gasket accordingly. It was easy and improved performance.
