just starting to look at alternate epoxies for P port and exhaust
sleeves.. I've found some devcon titanium fill that's good 350F or the
underwater epoxy that good to about the same temp.. I've also found a HT
epoxy that good to 400F from locktite in their aerospace catalouge and a
company called Alvin products that makes /supplies a 1000F product
called ' lab metal' ..  the rx7 forums are a little lean on technicals
on products used other then to say ' devcon' ... looking for suggestions
on a bonding/sealing agent for the sleeves..

thanks

We have something down here called JP Weld. Available in hardware
stores everywhere. Works great if you heat it before you mix it.

Also there is an outfit called Freeman Supply I have done business
with in the past. Good outfit.

Cast-IT 2000  looks good to me.

405 F. I would fill all pertinent cavities before cutting the hole for the
tube inserts. That would solve a problem or two.

I just read   Lab-Metal
<http://www.alvinproducts.com/Products/Products.asp?id=2>  is available
through fastnel which is just down the road, lets hope us and Can corp
offices do the same product lines.. I think this may be my best option
for a TT P-port.
