How to seal muffler to standpipe?
Good Morning!
It seems like a small thing - unless you're the one that painted the hood!
When I start up Jay, he puffs a little soot for a minute, and it comes out the joint where the muffler joins the standpipe that comes up from the manifold. It gets on the paint and makes a dirty black spot.
What do you guys do:
1. Seal it up with <<miracle putty or other stuff>>.
2. Live with it.
3. Move the muffler joint below the hood.

To answer your question, I live with it. But, you can solve the problem by installing a longer pipe to raise the muffler connection farther above the hood. I don't think moving the connection below the hoodline is feasible. And sealing the connection may not be a good idea as sometimes they are hard enough to remove when you need to without any sealer on them.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Aluminum Tape
Donny,
When I do a Google search for "Aluminum Tape", I get back a lot of different things...
Do you mean the wide silver tape that's used on A/C duct work?

Allen,
Try a company called Venture Tape. They make aluminum foil tape for different applications, like HVAC and automotive. They have automotive foil tape, rated for 250 degF..........Bill V.

Better use an over-night diaper just to be sure.

Swimmy...
Tragically, my baby robot passed away last year...
All I have to remember him by is the "swimmy diaper" he was wearing just before he passed on...

Seems like a good time to ask this questions but if I wanted to replace the exhaust pipe from the manifold, what size diamter pipe pipe should I use. Also, what are most of you using for length? I'm also assuming that we're dealing with national pipe thread? Galvanized or regular black iron pipe?
