Vintage Karting Forum

Good evening all. I was hoping to see if someone might recognize this old pipe I have for a KT100. If so, I was interested in learning more about it. For example, I would like to find out what the application for the pipe is; low end, mid range, or top end? Also, what would a good clutch be to use in conjunction with it and what rpm range would be best for engagement? Lastly, what should the header/flex length be for optimum performance? I believe it is an RLV pipe, but I couldn’t find any information on it. Thanks in advance for any and all help....

If it is an RLV A4 it is for top end, like road race as it is narrow power band.  http://www.vdm46.com/vintage-expansion-chambers.html

Paul,

Thank you for your help. The information on the VDM46.com is exactly what I was looking for and then some. Their webpage is a tremendous resource that I have referred to in the past. Now I know they cover vintage expansion chambers as well.

Vince,
That web site is 99.99% Rod Van Deusen's work and he is definitely passionate about old karts. His dad was there at the start of it all.
