Riva red pipe bracket help

[noctrnl]

Hey everyone, just switched to an Ada girdle head. I was told I need to modify the stock exhaust bracket to the shape of an L for it to mount the Riva red pipe to the head. Just seems the bracket won't be as strong now. Is there anyone who has or still running this set up?

I do have that bracket. I meant the bracket that mounts the Riva red pipe to the Ada bracket. I was told to modified the stock bracket into the shape of an L but it just seems that makes it very week. I will post up a picture.

I had to make it a perfect L shape and also remove the notches on the bottom so it sit's flush on the Ada bracket.

How did it hold up ?

I haven't tested the ski yet. But its definitely not as strong as it use to be. I think it will give out after a few good jumps.

I did some research last night and you don't need to make it an L shape. Just notch out where it hits the acorn nut and bolt

Definitely post some pictures, Mine wouldn't work without removing all of it. It was hitting the head not just the nuts so I couldn't get the bolt holes to line up also It wouldn't sit flush either without removing those raised spots on the bottom.
