Gruppe,

I thought I would share the results of today's project. I removed the 745's heat shields from the exhaust manifold, sandblasted them and then painted. The results are below.

I used the Dupli-Color High Heat with Ceramic paint. After painting I "cured", per instructions, in the oven for 2 hours at 400 degrees, don't tell the wife! Results are pretty good. According to the manufacturer if cured the paint will withstand 1200 degrees.

FWIW,
Bruce H

That's very nice, but what are those red plug wires doing there, and why aren't those hose clamps alighned properly on the air flow hoses?

LOL
