I spent about 4-5 hours refinishing my Triad today... GULF ORANGE!!! WOOHOO!

In the elbows, at the HEs... scorched brown... What the HELL?

How hot does it get back there?


M

exhaust temp at cylinder is 1400 - 1600 degrees.........

Usually burns where the exhaust pulse harmonics exist.......


"Ebony and hominy....side by side on my keyboard..........,"

real hot....

i thought 600deg paint was enough, thought very wrong.....

it turned kinda greyish-white, left some powdery stuff on the surface then went back to rusting....


b

Damn.. I bet those knuckles get about 1200 then... oh well... at least it won't rust anymore today.



Still looks very road warrior..

Miles,

Does a Gulf Orange exhaust look really good on a GREEN car?

Ken

I would say... maybe.. if it has orange wheels, rockers, and valences..

(and eyes)



Ribbit

gulf orange though.....

It'd look GREAT if it also had orange bumpers, and pads.
