If the stubs are tight in the head, then I wouldn't want to disturb them unnecessarily, as doing that can result in them becoming loose in the first place.

I agree, but Wolfie did say that the stub was turning in the head when he was trying to get the pipe off.

I forgot to mention that when I refitted the stubs into my Triumph head, I also used high temp Loctite on the thread and the grub screw.

No problems since.

Which ones sound better in your opinion?
Personal choice, but I prefer the peashooters

In my humble opinion you cannot beat swept backs and goldies on a triton I have a good set of siamese and 1 goldie that will be for sale shortly as I have just bought what I reccomend

 Would this be a 38 year old 1978 T140 and not a 28 year old Harris built Bonnie ? If so , there would not have been stubs in the exhaust ports , the pipes pushed in , unless someone installed those aftermarket push in stubs that allowed for the use of the larger 650 header pipes .

Look at the date of post. It was "28" years old in December 2009.
