b40rt Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Just a perforated tube (or should be, they get blocked) I cut a rectangular hole on the carb side, repack with proprietary material. Cut and bend a cover fixed with four rivenuts, sealed with high temp silicon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbohead Posted October 30, 2016 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 ....or you can cut it open along the edges, put a new perforated pipe in place with a few welds, pack the whole thing with hight temp insulation (or steel wool) and weld it up again. As you can tell by the weight of it, there is no need to worry about ultra-thin material, so welding (MIG, MAG or TIG) is easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
