Hey guys, a fellow racer and his son both have Lo206's at our track. The exhaust kept coming loose and it was pulling the treads out of the head on the forward bolt despite being safety wired. I helped him fix it because I had a tap and die set with me. I was surprised that it was only 6mm threads, we oversized the one hole to 8mmx1.25 and got a nice good set of threads in there(I've got 10 years machinist experience so I didn't nut job the new threads before you jump to that conclusion)....installed a 8mm allen bolt with a good 1/2 bite in the threads and the next race they pulled right out of the head again. The aluminum appears to be just butter soft for some reason, far worse than what I've seen in a clone.
Its the spec pipe and brace, others aren't having the same problems.....Bad batch of castings?
