I got rid of the one-time-use injector clamps many years ago on the advise of a Porsche mechanic. Cut them off with a dremel.
The "cad" plated fuel rails, as well as the decel valve are new from Porsche. I have no doubts that the color is derived from something other than cad plating, as it is so dangerous to people & the environment. Don't quote me on this but it's me belief that REAL cadmium plating was abandoned many years ago due to the nature of the horrible chemicals involved. Sorta like the old time liberal use of lead in bodywork (have some of that too). Most of the oldtimer lead experts are long dead. Pat |

I agree with whatever you say sincerly as I have no Concourse experience and do not pretend to be, just shared what I have.
Eastwood has a cad paint 3 parts but is recomend a 4th part whihc is the clear coat giving th esheen to the paint creating the finish cad plate look.. those whom did not clear coat had poor resultsa but those whom did had great results.. 911` guys use it, so the threads in 911 cad plating is the best for reading actual experiences with it. joe |
