crack'd mani

[atticus1398]

Well, I thought my boost leak was due to old silicone, so I took the bumper off, but the silicone couplers were o.k. Hmmm, I know, let's take the heatsheild off.......... look at the inside of the heatsheild.(bang)

so not surprising. i bet you dont have a stock s pipe with the bracket on it or the one on the j pipe.

 

[atticus1398]

yes I do. maybe it's from boosting 15psi for 2 yrs, lol. oh well, this will go on tommorrow. Tony, any idea on how long to cure that manni in my oven for, and what temp? Dont want to risk any coating chipping.

 

[terbow]

just trying to be safe, saw a couple pics of others "latest edition" manis with the coating chipping less than a month after install. I may try the JB weld tommorrow, I don't want to do the same job twice. After all, this is going in whenever I get motivated......

Kind of wanted to get this head PnP'd also...

 

[bazooka joe]

nice motor....nicer valve cover...!!!

 

[atticus1398]

I definately want the Nologys too, and maybe the AWR oil pan. Can't forget this, lol?

 

[terbow]

oh man id love one of those

 

[bazooka joe]

man!! you got some goodies!!

 

[atticus1398]

It's taken a long time to aquire all that stuff. After the 18 months for my block, I kind of lost interest. Sounds crazy, but Terbow knows what I'm talking about. Kind of lost motivation.

 

[terbow]

Fukin nice...what kind of mani is that?? Is that t25 turbo w/ corksport s pipe??

Hey jus for future reference, if my stock mani is cracked like that, is there a way to fix it, or is it necesarry to buy a new one?
