Hi, First thanks to all who are helping me with this small project:
In replacing my beetlemex heads ( which have the 3/4 inch plug hole - I like that) it's been suggested I use 044 heads and I have a few questions about this
the 044's have larger intake and exhaust 40x35 vs stock ( 35intake, 32 exhaust), is there any consequence to this size difference when I am using everything else stock:( piston size and stock muffler). More power?, no difference in power?, more gas consumption?
The 044's also have stainless steel valves
I've come across a site which states: All of the stainless valves I have tested are slightly softer and wear faster than the factory stock steel unleaded valve. - from gene berg wesite
I may be getting too much info and getting myself a little apprhensive, but as there is a price difference between a "normal" stock head vs the
044 of $80.00 a peice, I just like to know what I may be getting for the money. Basically, I just want something very reliable ( this is ( will be) my daily driver) and any extra power is nice in dealing with these steep Pa hills here.Hmmm since the beetlemex heads have a 3/4" does that make them a 044 design?
Thanks again, I really appreciate it Matt S
