Ok guys, I'm building a 358 cub motor. I currently have FMF Fatties, I know these will not work that great on the cub. But I want to keep my CFM aluminum airbox, and I believe that neither the CPI or Shearer pipes will allow me to do this. Does anyone have suggestions?

I dont know what to say if you insist on keeping the airbox. I would ditch the airbox, get some nice pod style filters and run Shearers or CPI's. :thumbsup: Actually now that I think about it, my bros shee has CPIs and had the airbox till we took it off... I would just get some CPI's.

What kind of riding are you doing? Are the cubs gonna be ported?

 

 

Just a clean up port. I'm mainly gonna be using it for large oval racing. Basically two drag races with a corner on each end. Very fast wide open tracks, not the typical tt type tracks. I will also occasionally take it out for a trail ride.

 

I know, I know....cubs cannot be used on trails. I just need something to scare the shit out of me occasionally lol. But seriously, there are lots of dirt roads, old railroad beds, and wide open fire roads that I'll tear up quite a bit on it. I need some splash protection, because even wet grass and small puddles will cause problems with pods.

Yeah go with CPIs for sure. Shearers pull on top way to much for trails, but you would be alright with CPIs. They are still a high reving pipe, but hit better in the mid, and not so drastic on top as the shearers. You will be happy with CPIs. :thumbsup:

Cool, I really like the way CPIs look too. Can anyone show me a pic of their CPIs with the seat off from the top? Also, any opinions on whether rockets would work? I'm pretty sure T5's would but I don't know if they'd be much better than the FMF's.

I will get you some under the seat pics of CPIs tomorrow. :thumbsup:
