Subject: Re: PM Finds by hcbph on 2016/3/24 15:17:28 Making a little progress, won't finish it till next week when I have more time and hopefully the straps will come in. The sleeves I ordered have a metal ring in one end that won't fit over the boot, assume it's to hold it close to the wire. I'm leery of trying to get the boots off without potentially damaging the core, so I took a wire cutter and snipped those rings to open up that end. They slide over the boots easily with that little mod. I've put 2 on and I'll need to do a little more fitting to straighten them up but so far it's looking good. Took a picture of some of the materials I'm using along with the loom clips I got on the engine. I also have a new cover for the egr tube but again that will wait till I get those stain steel straps. The pipe wrap lists not for headers but being it's on the air tube I think it will be fine and the sleeves are treated fiberglass and say they can be in contact with headers etc without a problem. That's where I'm at for the moment. Being the car is red, using red parts where I can seems to make sense, should look pretty when done. |
