took me around four hours with blue masking tape and five or six #11 exacto blades. i wire wheeled everything, then degreased and wiped down with acetone. afterward came coats of high heat primer and high heat black, waited for that to cure and covered the tops with blue tape. sliced the...

i go to sleep at night imagining freighters filled with mk3s coming to cali :D

grade 5 was fine for me. i used them to hold onto the engine for well over two months with no ill effects. keep in mind the entire engine was loading the bolts for about four days (two to disassemble and two to assemble) for reference, a 5/16 grade 5 bolt (8mm) will have a tensile/breaking...

it's a company truck, why worry? :D

3e5 baby.

im with poodles. i bought a used hatch from a junkyard with cracked window trim and i've got a bad leak now. gonna try to seal it up with either clear or black silicone and then give it a coat of paint

yet another supra to be jealous of :D

i always double clutch my baby. 'cause i need to :D

hey, interested in the wheels/catback. do you have pictures?

called techline. heres what they told me for future reference: both satin black and turbox are their best thermal barriers. turbox remains colorfast at high temps instead of turning gray like their satin black. cilgen black satin has the highest chemical/corrosion resistance but its not as...

Ive got the blast cabinet and application equip. Only issue is the curing step if i dont use the cilgen

also, anyone thought about using their thermal barrier (CBC1?) on the intake manifold?

this is one thing i'm glad they're still teaching in college. i hated the professionalism class but the help with the resume has definitely left its mark.

hey guys, getting ready to buy a techline coating to put on this manifold, but i'm slightly confused with these three choices: black satin turbo x cilgen satin black i think the turbo x color holds up best under temperature. looks like all three will air dry, but black satin and turbo...

shame its not 4wd, but definitely perfect for towing

wow. 6.9l is pretty sizeable.

hey, i was honestly thinking of wrapping perforated pipe strap over each wrap of the fiberglass. good to hear suggestions!

don't know, still trying to take care of the heat issue. I think i'm going to have it all ceramic coated to keep me from rubbing exhaust wrap off on curbs or speed bumps. don't want to go to all that trouble to waste $50 in wrap. is there any way to fab a shield for the low-hanging part? here's...

ill link my other thread about placement tonight, but came to the conclusion that a nb sensor would give acceptable results. If and when i go with a wb ill definitely put it after the y pipe.

it's about as close as my old one, i'm going to wrap it with fiberglass wrap and coat it with the silicone spray to control the heat. AJ, any advantage to having it further down?
