    Yes I am new to fiberglass. Will the patch be strong enough to standup to my stainless headers?
    Strong enough how? Heat shouldn't affect it, but if the header is touching it, I'd try and fix that.

      My long tubes dont touch it, but like any car its close. Not sure how hot headers get but its got to be able to cook anything not metal.

        • What would everyone recommend for a rev limiter? Need to get the PCM sent out for tuning.

          Hoping to get an opti this week too.

          No pics, but almost everything is clean and ready to go. Motor should be going together this week for a friday pick up.

            from the dyno charts i've seen, and with your cam setup, IMO no more than 5700-5800 until you get it dyno'd to see what its doing.

                      Ya it may blow up at that rpm. Not quite as nice as yours but it should turn out pretty nice.
