I might double it up to be safe. VW did that with alot of the replacement VR6 coolant and rear engine parts. the originals werent shielded, but coincidentally the new parts are. i guess they realized they had a design flaw on their hands. ---

Whatever floats your boat :lol I gave Boxersix my manifold to get welded, going to drop my intercooler piping off to Hank tomorrow so he can weld that. Than maybe catch up with Wayne to get my fuse panel mount made up. ---

Well Ive read/heard about what happens with the plugs on the 5.4’s and how they break off in the heads so Im not taking that risk. ---

Got to finally do some work on my car now that I have 3-4 days of free time not working on a customers vehicle. -Put an aftermarket tach in the WRX so I actually know what I’m swinging the EG33 to now before I hit fuel cut. -Got my front subframe/crash bar back from KTA having it painted. Triple coated in epoxy primer, two coats single stage Alpine White 🙂 -Made myself one of my rally skid plates too, to glide off the rough shit when I purposely go 4-off. 1/4" plate 6061, formed to fit the crash bar, header debris deflectors(DP’s hang lower than the SP by ~1/2") -Now working on my 5" quad rally light pod for the hood. Xenon 3K and xenon 4300K Porsche projectors, shields removed, and encased in my own housing behind 5" polycarbonate lenses 🙂 ---
