Header Project
Well I've put it off long enough so now I finally started taking out my Pacesetter long tubes that I put in this summer. I'm taking them out to recoat them because I didn't coat them right the first time... It only took a few hrs to have the car ripped down and to have the headers unbolted... but the god damn y pipe had a mind of its own and wouldn't let the headers go..... after a few more hours of work the headers were free... I sand blasted one header last night which is the shitiest work there is... if anyone works as a sandblaster your job must fuckin suck.... the header came out good after the blast so today I decided to test paint one header. I'm using POR-20. Its a high temp paint that is supposed to be pretty much indestructable... but we will see about that.... It didn't spray like I would have liked it to but it didn't come out too bad.... This stuff is like paste in the can so you have to thin it down 8-1... but it still didn't come out of the gun right.... its not a smooth finish its more bumpy... ..... so thats where i am right now... I'll post up more pictures along the way to show you guys whats involved in putting in long tubes... I know some of you want to see how its done....
