according to my SIP catalouge ,the longer one is for better torque and the shorter for max power !

Let us know how you get on with the reed valve, because I have a tuned LML engine and I think they are brilliant.

Crank and reed valve ordered. Going to start a thread on the whole build. Hopefully will be of interest to some and I can gain some advice as I continue in the never ending development of my humble p200 engine

tuned T5 for me pete. rather cut me cock off than give in and get a GTS. its like the VW scene, have a proper one or have a new snide one that will always have you making excuses.

Looking forward to reading the thread on your build. Tempted to reed my 172 but I'm wondering is the hp increase worth the effort...Good luck with it!
