oh really?

what did they point out?

ohh just that its not really a new product, its been tried before. it may get brittle?

IJ says "There are a few downsides to using it from memory, You need to reengineer the studs/bolts so they're isolated from the Manifold as they'll transfer the heat you're trying to stop as well as in time it goes brittle and 1 backfire can crack it and cause a leak http://www.supramania.com/forums/ima...lies/frown.gif."

for the price, it just seems like a hassle and problematic?

how would you re-engineer the bolts to prevent heat transfer through them? use rubber bolts? LOL

I guess you could use longer bolts with a thick rubber washer or something on the end right?
