911 Cylinder tins ...


But what puzzles me most, is the 180 degree angled part of the under cylinder tins. The puzzling is that the original type 4 under cylinder tin has a similar design, but according to Jake, does not work well on a type 4. The type 1 straight undercylinder tin design seems to work best.

I certainly believe Jake that the type 1 style tin works best, but with my cylinders it doesn't fit at all, so I have removed the 180 degree ridges and cut off the under cylinderhead part, but it does still screw to the case and head in the original way. Hope it works...

I don't think that the upper part of the911 cylinder tins and how they extend into the airflow will work the same on a type 4 or that it matters a great deal, but I am curious as to why there is no extra guidance to the head part. The type 4 with 911 fan may need some help in that department (at least with nikasils).

Greetings,
Walter
