Who has seen a reed cage like this

[Ripnfool]

I pulled this reed cage out of my 300 drag built by -----------, if you have seen a cage like this or wher it comes from wat it goes in please let me know

That's not just a regular 7 peddle cage?

I think those are probably 280-300 drag style cages,not cut much,if at all.The reeds I sent you should fit fine,pay attention lineing up on the cages for best sealing area contact,chris

that is the stock 260-300 reed cage. same casting as the smaller ones but have been opened up at factory. they did not do a very good job holes not spaced even and offset. we have compensated for the factory flaws and the reeds will fit great slide them around to get even over lap on each opening and let it eat.
stan carson,

i have never seen one before.... dont know if it would really make a difference, it might... may have been in a S3000 motor. those roundy round guys tried all kinds of stuff.

OOPPS I didn't look at the second picture... I cannot tell if that is a shadow or a partition in the first picture. Pictures are sometimes deceiving and hard to tell whats what without having the part in my hand...

BTW : I beg your indulgence jbf ...........

i missed it too. thought it was a shadow. maybe there to smooth out turbulence as air passed into the cage?

Glad to see i am not the only one that has never seen/heard of a divider being installed in a hi perf 2.5 cage....
i have been helpin Ripinfool trying to dial in his STV
We now are chasing a strange oscillation at idle
could be an intermittent prob,idle jumps from 900rpm to 1400
we tryed my ECU and ruled that out
The injectors just got back from Brucato and the fuel system is new and supports 1000HP (car boat)
reeds are new as stated already
hang in ther Kev,we will get it
