Duplicolor is just a brand. They have many different types of paint. If you use their high-temp engine enamel, then yes, it will work. If you used the trim paint like I did, then no, it won't work.

 

ill get a pic tomorrow and you tell me if it will work

 

K.

 

thats the piant I use inside my bay

 

Thats the only one they had, that and some paper stuff.

 

best of luck when all those butt connectors go bad.
engine vibration and moisture will own you!

as long as theres some slack in the wire betwwen plugs and its crimped properly, he'll have no problem with a connection vibrating loose. If he decides to leave them, they can be wrapped to kill the concern of moisture.
keep up the work on the build

Already did that! You know me man!

 

<U>***UPDATE 6/19/06***</U>

I went out and got some flange's for the test pipe that I now have to make! The Omni Power seller backed out, so I gotta fab up my own! I had a little trouble finding them, but got them at Napa! Who'da thunk it?

I immediately have a problem though. The donut gasket on the header (or whatever it's called) makes the flange stick out quite a bit!

The Flange:




The Donut Gasket:



And, putting the two together:





I think that all it needs is to be tightened down REAL tight with the exhaust bolts. Wudya think?

Here's a pic of the flange on the header without the donut gasket:


Fit's real flush!

The exhaust pipe flange actually fits awesome, thank God.



What should I do about the header flange?

 

BUMP. There's still plenty of gasket mat'l visable inside so I'm thinking just bolt it down real hard and it'll take care of it. Think it'll work?

 

leave the donut and bolt it with the spring bolts

It won't leak?

 

when i put new donut on my exhaust it had a huge gap like that and it didnt leak

 

Aight, i'll give it a whirl! I hope I got no more shitty buzz!

 

Thats the spirit! Don't be afraid to screw stuff up! There isn't anything you can screw up that someone else can't fix.
My guess is that it should work fine.

That's a helluva attitude!

 

i'd put the donut on it. the donut helps with flex and leaks.

 

Looking good Tippyman!

Thanks! I went out and bought some Penzoil Synchromesh MTF for my new Si tranny! Weather allowing, I'll be putting on the tranny/clutch/flywheel along with fabbing up the test pipe and installing the exhaust and header tomorrow and Wednesday. Wish me luck!

I'm hoping that I'll notice a big difference afterwards, mainly due to the tranny.

 

Well, shitty rain means I will be doing work at MY house tomorrow, not my gf's house with the nice air tools.

I guess I'll just do the header and exhaust tomorrow and since the weather will clear by wed., do the tranny then.

 

i wish it would rain here in texas so i could get started on my wire tuck:-p.keep up updated tippyman!

Will do!

BTW: Do you guys think I'll notice much of a diff. with the new exhaust and header? I'm trying to anticipate what It'll feel like and I can't imagine it being all that panty-wetting.

 

i dont see you feeling much of a improvment but you'll hear it for sure page 8 ownage

 

I'll post pix after I start doing **** tomorrow!
