Is this the proper routing for the cooling on my B-Pipe???

After reading through tons of threads I have come to the conclusion that the best cooling routing for my b-pipe, ADA Head (35cc), and Jetworks Control valve is displayed in the following diagram.

Thanks to freestyleriverrat for the diagram.:biggthumpup: I just modified it for single cooling.

So am I right that this is the best way to set up my cooling when I install my bpipe tomorrow being that I am running single cooling?

Thanks:biggthumpup:

for me to POOP on!

If the manifold has two fittings, tee the manifold to one line that goes to the bottom fitting of the headder pipe. Or block one off.
 
What about running one of the lines from the head to the top of the headpipe and the line from the bottom of the headpipe to the stinger?


I think this is what FP calls for.

After reading more and more threads into the weee hours of the night I've come to some conclusions.

-There are two possible ways to route for single cooling. You can either go from the head to the bottom of the head pipe or you can go from the head to the top of the head pipe as seen in each picture.

-If you decide to go to the bottom of the headpipe from the head then the bottom and middle screws are closed and the top screw is open 3/4 of a turn.

-If you decide to go to the top of the headpipe then the top and middle screws are closed while the bottom screw is open 3/4 of a turn.

Are my assumptions correct and what is the difference in going from the head to the bottom of the headpipe or going from the head to the top of the headpipe?:dunno:

***The first picture is going from the head to the bottom of the headpipe.
***The second picture is going from the head to the top of the headpipe and this is what is recommended by Factory Pipe, but it seems like most people go with the first option.

Just ride
FLY, use your diagram just get rid of the pisser off the head if your gonna use single cooling. But you have a head on there now so it might be a good idea to run daul cooling.
 
you dont want water 2 outlets from your engine with only 1 inlet, unless the outlets are restricted or TEEd together before the bottom of the headpipe for even distribution in the head. i would either:

a: run dual cooling from the pump and into the manifold
b: cap off the second line coming out of the head
c: tee the 2 lines coming from the head and into the headpipe.
 
Well I've come to the conclusion that I'm going to need to set it up for dual cooling while I can.

Now I've read through the entire cooling thread in the Tech section twice and it seems like no one ever actually agreed on what was the better route to take.

It seems like there are two options:

1. Run both lines to the manifold (1st Picture)
2. Run one line to the manifold and one line to the head pipe (2nd Picture)

How are most people running there dual cooling? I can see the advantages of both setups.

On a single line cooling system what is the difference between running the lines from the head to the bottom of the headpipe and running the lines from the head to the top of the headpipe?
 
I like 2 seperate cooling circuits so you can tell which one is cloged. my current ski isn't set up that way though.

I think I'm going to stick with single cooling now especially since its the winter. Maybe when summer rolls around I might go to dual cooling.

1.) Should I run both lines from the head to the headpipe or one line to the headpipe and one to a bypass with a restrictor.

2.) Should I run the line(s) from the head to the bottom or top of the headpipe? Factory Pipe says the top of the headpipe while a lot of old threads say the bottom of the headpipe. (Already answered above by WD)

Thanks,
Dan

I think I might be able to get the pipe and head installed today:arms:

It doesn't seem that hard to install the head. How nesecarry is it to check the squish on a newer motor? I really don't know how to check it and I've heard that ADA Heads are usually spot on with the squish.

cooler coupler.

Hmmmmm. I never thought about that.:biggthumpup:

Now if I do run the hose to the bottom of the headpipe then I'll have the bottom and middle crew closed and the top one open 3/4 of turn or will I still have the top and middle closed with the bottom one open 3/4 of a turn like FP says to do when you run the line to the top of the headpipe?
