What is the rear cone angle on the 10cc?
1.5 for the header angle.Hi all,
I posted some information about the tether hydro's that I run with some pictures and I got a few people asking about one of the tuned pipes that I use, see pictures below
The one below is for 3.5cc engines, they are all screw together and come with 3 different length manifolds in 2mm increments, they also come with 3 different stingers with different bores, 6.0-6.3 and 6.5mm.
They are generally regarded as the best possible pipes for tethered cars and tethered hydros. They are available for 3.5cc, 5cc and 10cc engines so I guess that anyone using one for an RC application would be interested in the 3.5cc variant only.

I am talking to the guy who makes them as I want some more and thought I would reach out and ask a few questions to see if this pipe is suitable for RC boats. If it is or can be with some adjustments I would be willing to commission him to manufacture some for use in RC boats for others to buy.
The main question - These are typically straight pipes with no angle to the manifold, if we were to get these made with an angled manifold (and a pressure nipple) what angles are typically used? (or are they preferred with a straight manifold?)
Materials - This one is stainless steel but Aluminium is also available, Stainless steel apparently works better but what would the preference be?
If you feel they are of no use I won't bother taking it any further
Regards
