OK I know these pics suck, but I used VLC to input my web cam then hit print screen lol kinda ghetto I know but worked better then my phone.. or the cam that eats battery's like they are free.
My WB bung hole.
that in a good spot Vaddy?
The reason there's a bare spot is because I don't want to do the final weld until I can bolt it up to the car/turbo and make sure its angled right. I'll paint that spot after we do the final weld but I don't expect it to last. Or any of it for that matter, but I figured its worth a try cause I've seen people have relatively good results.
This is my half ass attempt at rust prevention, I followed the directions as best I could but I couldn't get all the paint off the front piece, but I got the rear part fairly well cleaned up. All I had to use was a grinder with a sanding wheel on it. The can said to wait 1 week because there's some chemical reaction during the curing process that helps harden the paint. Which is perfect cause the weekend after next my friend should have time to let me use his garage for the install.
oh an i used VHT header paint "good" up to 2300f
