does anyone have a pic of the upper bolt beside the dowel pin, i was told a while back to tighten it to 100 lbs, so i could stop my oil leak! they said to remove the trans and clutch and tighten this 1 bolt and it should stop the leak without hurting anything. does this sound reasonable.

On a different note, why is not posible to make a header from alum. ?
i thought that it would dissipate heat quickly?

 

I think aluminum will melt, or deform before it can dissipate that heat. 2000 degrees is alot of heat to get rid of

 

Stop the oil leak by over tightening a bolt?

Hmmm

The reason its leaking is because of a bad o-ring, motor rebuild.

You shouldn't make any exhaust pieces out of aluminum, it would melt or crack before it melted.


Where do you find this stuff?
