Title: Busted V11 Cross Over
Post by: Bones1300 on March 20, 2015, 07:30:10 PM
The cross over on my 2000 Jackal broke at the weld. I am planning on just building a new crossover with out the baffling, my question is will there still be enough back pressure? It has the stock pipes on it.

Get a crack-proof crossover from guzzitech.com. If all you do is switch to a straight H-pipe, it probably won't effect the fueling much.

I've had an H pipe from Fast by Ferraci on my 01 Cal Special for years. Works a treat.

I use the one without the muffler in the cross and I cut the crossover in half and put a splice in with band clamps. Helps with alignment so it's less likely to crack.

It's not that kind of V11, and not that crossover.

yes you can build your own, make it a slip joint w/clamp in the center section for easy fitment.

you will loose a bit of mid range torque and gain a bit of noise under you. you do gain a little bit freer revving in the 4-7000 RPM range. one of the crossovers is better built than the other but I don't remember which.

Slip joint- that's what I was trying to say but couldn't think of the word, anyway you can build your own or the easy way is to buy one, cut a section out of the cross and add a slip joint. Clamps from an Ambassador are what I use to secure the joint.
