CMB Pipe Performance and Matching

[BobBonahoom]

Darryl,

Only that Stu has found and we can confirm that the 707 stinger muffler on the CMB pipe seems to actually boost performance a bit. I think Stu sells those mufflers also. Also, we like the 90 degree pressure fittings that John Otto at Technology Hobbies sells.

accidentally dropped and bent my brand-new NovaRossi .67DD nitro pipe (No. 50495). The stinger was significantly bent into "D" shape. Can the swaging tool fix this?

 

[David Ashcroft]

Yes,,must have fallen from a great height

Yes,,must have fallen from a great height

yeah, I was re-organizing stuff, the pipe fell from a shelf maybe 6 feet high. Of course the stinger made initial contact with the ground (concrete). I think I'm gonna re-organize all pipes on lower shelf

I will purchase swaging tool and try to fix bent section.

You may end up enlarging it with a swaying tool. The material is really soft, you might want to put piece of round stock that is a tight fit into the stinger in a vise and using it as a mandral wit small plastic hammer tap it back round. If you dont have the right size material you could use the shank of a drill held in a vise.Thanks John

thanks John, I see what you're saying. I will be careful either way
