Lightweight 3269 Header
Does anyone make a lighter version of the 3269 header.
This is the one that comes with the quiet pipe for the MVVS 35cc gas motor.
The one I have weighs 156g (5.5oz) which is way too heavy.
I would really like the save the weight up here.
Is making one from KS components the best way to go?
Thanks in advance.

Marty,
The MVVS engineering dept. determined that steel, in heavy gage, is the most suitable for this part. Krumscheid also make their headers from steel.
It is possible their header is lighter, but it does not appear to be, at first glance.

Marty,
The ZDZ 40 header, as made by MAC's is lighter and should need very little bashing to make it fit both the 26cc and 35cc MVVS. The heavier gauge tubing of MVVS is more durable though.
