tony27 Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 What type of reed is fitted, if they are boyesen dual layer reeds they don't use stoppers. Any other brand on the standard reed block should require stoppers V-force reed block doesn't have stoppers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell what it is from the picture? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony27 Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Can only tell you that it's not a v-force reed, if it was the cage would be plastic, have no screws & your manifold would have the wings cut off To tell whether you have boyesen reeds fitted to the standard cage will require a shot from the other side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
