Nice part about nitrous is its on / off. Track the shit out of it and spray a little to keep the Nisky lot in the rear view.

> Some VF mounts for an R32 we did a timing chain service and a clutch kit. ECS screwed us HARD on their “clutch kit”. Put it all together, put it in first let the clutch out and absolutely nothing. take it all back apart just to find out the stand offs on the flywheel for the pressure plate are .120+ too high, therefore never engaging the clutch disk. Being the kit took 3+ weeks to get, a worthless call to ECS turned into “Send it back to us we will give it to our engineers and when they reach a conclusion we can send you a replacement” Yeah that would be 4-5+ weeks out… NO THANK YOU. Even after telling them EXACTLY what the problem is, and giving them pictures of all the components on $250K+ digital MILITARY SPEC machine equipment so they could see the thicknesses… they told is is was probably “installer error!” LOL. So off to the lathe it went, cut it down appropriately and it works perfect. But yeah, here are the mounts.

Thanks for the pics!

Plastic.

Every plastic is supposed to be stamped with a composition code. These are PPO/PA coded. Google search and there are databases for the melting points (as well as other properties). Turns out these caps were the same plastic used on most bike plastics. Melting point is apparently 575F!

you more or less have to hot flock (shoot the powder at a surface temp that will instantly melt on contact) becasue its not a very good conductor to ground out the part.

Two questions: Will a sway bar fit in your oven and how does powdercoating hold up to something flexible like a sway bar?

</div>

if the sway bar is less than 72" long, it will fit fine.

Depends on the powder. One of the ratings each one has is a flexibility test against cracking or lifting. They coat springs and stuff like that all the time and it seems to hold up just fine. Powder is far less brittle and flexible than cured paint.

not to mention they are usually coated from the factory (aftermarket ones that is).

I say its probably fine. I personally havnt tried it, but I know its done all the time.
