Message With all the talk I hear about heat wrap causing rust, I opted to go with Swain's White Lightning Coating on the hottest parts in the engine bay.

I also chose to take a slight loss in power by having the DPs coated as well in favor of lower engine bay temperatures. My car is after all mainly made to be a driven car so longevity is important to me.

Just loosely bolted together for the pictures...It's a shame you can hardly see most of these parts once they are installed.


With all this downtime, I also figured now would be a great time to finally get around to removing all of the bolt holes and brackets I no longer am using. It's quickly done with a grinder, cutting wheel, a little welding, some body filler, and sand paper. I ended up removing 10 bolts and 4 brackets overall.


That's all for now...thanks for looking.

Thanks,
Mike
