I am sure a nice 28cc head kit or 30.5 head kit is just what the doctor ordered. I do believe rampagehopups sell's the 28cc head kit's for these at a reasonable price. Or the usual ddm or tgn.

The 28.5 is the easiest and cheapest upgrade. Make a huge difference for only $76.

 

[chefjness]

sounds good.

What else needs to be done in order to upgrade to this head?

Baja dominator made my 23cc engine come alive a my KM baja... I saw the pipe mounted to the Rampage in a video and I like the performance


They had a 30.5 in the truck too.


heres the video

I hadn't seen that second vid with the dominator pipe, looks like it really works well with the Rampage and the 4WD system to create alot of bottom end torque.

Are you saying that this vid is with the domonator pipe (obviously I see it) AND a 30.5. What kind of mod does the pipe need to work with the MT. It looks like it was extended to reach the head.

 

[redcatmt]

i am putting a 30.5 in mine as well......cant wait

 

[Just_Gerald]

The pipe fits pretty well with just chopping off the header pipe about halfway along and adding a chunk of tubing, I suggest something a little better then heater hose tho, we burnt thru it in one tank. THe combo made a lot of bottom end torque, actually too much, going to gear it up and see what kind of speed we can gt out of it, bought the buggy 29 tooth gear, see what that does. taking it out tomorrow, will have more vid.


Also fixed the diff and installed the hardened dowel pins, see if they'll hold up.

I'm trying the dom pipe on the stock engine first...then upgrading

What about Robs suggestion of the 28 head kit + Xcan?

 

[fourwheeler]

What about Robs suggestion of the 28 head kit + Xcan?

That would make a good all around combination. And it is a pretty easy swap.

Don't go crazy with the power yet. Unless you want to upgrade some other parts first. I would put MCD dogbones in if you are going for the 30.5.

 

[NitroBurn]

I ordered me a 29cc race ported headkit with 2mm stuffed crank from DDM today. Will be ordering an x-can and some shock springs from Rob as soon as he gets a red one.

Are the MCD dogbones a direct fit? And what else is a beefer part that is a bolt on from the MCD?
