I recently purchased an original exhaust for my '74 2.0L that's in excellent condition. I was thinking of using the VHT SP104 high heat flat grey paint to finish it off....any advise on other paints that I should consider?
I'm also going to repaint the heater control flaps, boxes and pipes in satin black.....do those need high heat paint as well? Attached thumbnail(s) |

Congratz on the find Jeff! Is it the Leistritz or Bischoff?
Try emailing to Bev & Tom Gould at TC's Garage & ask them to check if they've been able to find the "Porsche Exhaust Gray" which Wurth used to sell, since they're Wurth dealers, Tom is an ex-914er, & they're both some of our most experienced Concours judges in Zone 8. email Tom at tom@tcsgarage.com or call 760-891-8151 Their website is having some tech problems right now at: tcsgarage.com .... .... but their Facebook page is working at: https://www.facebook.com/TCsGarage/?ref=page_internal If they can't find the Wurth, then ask them what they used on BeeVee's 911 exhaust. You can say that I referred you for their expertise. Stoddard's used to sell it too. Otherwise, you may need to do a color match, cuz that Hi-Temp paint isn't really close to the gray Porsche has used on their 149-90's +/- exhaust systems.
