Exhaust port temp

Killerwhale · Post by **Killerwhale** » Sat Apr 07, 2012 7:47 pm

Whatcha reckon the port temp will be? IÂ´m thinking of using a copper high temp silicone for exhaust gasket as a standard 38mm gasket is covering some of the porting. I know, a tad anal but a quick fix...

You can expect up to 1200 degrees F Kw (around 650 C).

Have you looked for washers, either alloy or copper in the size you require?
Make your own:

And one of these:

That`s 38.1 mm, you would have to file the rest out.

Good call: http://www.toolbarn.com/malco-hpd41m.html
If one could find a 44mm one is set for making gaskets

I know I use to always seal the triumph headers on the bonnie with plumbers roof and gutter silicone sealant.
Never had a problem and one less copper for me to worry about

,the only problem with the heat was when them coppers did give me a hard time

but they could never catch me anyhow
