Default Rebuild

New piston, rings RB Designs head work. Why on earth did it take me a year to get the head done?

I keep saying I won't own another 2T without setting the head up as 1st priority, and thats exactly what I did on my 2013 model. Best bang for buck on a banger. Even if all it does is allow the jetting process to run a bit smoother.

That is exactly what i noticed. Idle, rev, decelerate, power delivery; all "smoother", "cleaner".

IF I was a dealer I think I'd have the head done as part of pre delivery, it is insane the difference it makes
