Fred Head Questions

[Street Ryderz]

Yeah, both ends are the same. I measured both ends and they are both 1mm thread pitch. I tried screwing both ends into the engine and they both worked.

You can get some threaded rod (all thread) and cut to length or re tap the case for 1.25 thread pitch.

Another weird thing now that I'm looking at my engine, I don't even know if I even have a flying horse!! I don't have an angle fire head, the cylinder looks different, and the motor head studs are different. Unless bikeberry changed their flying horse without updating their picture because the engine does have a flying horse sticker on it.

It wouldn't hurt to get stainless steel threaded rod if I can find it right? I'd imagine it would be stronger and maybe less stretching?

I'm a firm believer in stainless steel bolts. I have yet to have one break or come loose

stainless steel metric A-2 is only as strong as American Grade 5 or metric grade 8.8

I found the studs I need on SickBikeParts.com. But I'm gonna checkout my local fastening systems shop. They had everything else I needed for my bike.

What grit range of sandpaper would be best to use to rough up the intake port?

No no, you want to polish the intake port.

What about atomization?
