Probably the first of many stupid questions, but......
The non-standard 4-1 headers on my 550K3 are shot - they've already been patch repaired once (badly) and are good only for the bin. So I need new headers but I want a setup where the 4-1 merge is taken care of by the headers, not as part of the can as is the case with the Motad system. This is because I want to use a non-standard can and link pipe.
Marving do a system for the 550F1/2/3 but don't list one for the K3 although AFAIK the engines are the same. Can anyone tell me whether there is actually a difference between them that would mean 550F headers wouldn't fit a 550K?
Any alternatives other than Marving? Swarbrick Racing (
http://www.swarbrick-racing.co.uk/prices.html) list headers for the 500/4 - will these fit the 550?
There are some on eBay ("CB550 X4") and I'm not worried about the scrapes on them but I am unsure whether they'll fit.
Any advice gratefully received as I've been looking for headers for a while. Other people must have had to replace theirs?
