Tom, The "two inch band" is simply the shape of the fattest part of the pipe. These are used on gasoline powered type engines like the Zenoah 231's and 260's. A 'standard' pipe willl usually have a divergent cone transitioning right into a convergent cone (like two ice cream cones stuck together!). The 'band' pipe adds volume to the middle of the pipe and provides more torque and a little less rpm than the standard pipe. There are also "one inch band" pipes and I know of one manufacturer who has "band inserts" that can vary the band between a half inch to maybe three and a half inches. I'll see if I can come up with a 'pic'. RC
