Reed block rapido

[Psychedelicropcircle]

Is there a reed block which fits without the fettle onto a rapido barrell?

will the mb and lth ones not fit ok....by fettling do you mean not removing fins?...as you will need to take out a quite bit of metal to get it to fit the barrel

Yep not removing fins, thought I seen a small reed block can't remember who made em.

AF's fit the LTH ones to theirs and they do require the fins trimming and a boost port cutting into the cylinder and they are pretty small. I think even the od style DJ reedblocks for standard type cylinders required trimming the fins,cheers,Speedy.

MB, LTH, Atomic all require ...fettling to the block

[Psychedelicropcircle]

Even the atomic yes? As this one I was told is small enough for a straight fit.

The MB and the large atomic ones need quite a bit of fin area removed to fit, the smaller Atmoic and the LTH still need a small amount removing but not enough that it'd be a problem should you wish to return to piston port at a later date.

I've fitted a small Atomic one to a Mugello225 barrel, I removed more from the manifold itself than the fins. If I remove it you'd do well to spot that I've taken anything off the fins.
