New Fatty pipes, install questions?


Recommended Posts

Just purchased some new Fatty pipes and Power Core Silencers. I was wondering if I need to put any kind of silicone or RTV around the heads of the pipes to prevent oil getting on my new chrome. I have Cascade clamps for the silencers, just dont want any oil on my pipes, I had that problem with a LRD pipe, oil blasted on my pipe and stained them. thanks

I'd just buy new Orings for the pipes, thin...and I mean thin coat of hi temp RTV on the Oring itself. Make sure your springs holding the pipe on are in good condition...

 

Should be fine....Might want to scotch brite the outside of the exhaust header coming off your cylinder...to make sure and get a good seal.

 

Is it possible you're running too much oil in your premix...or your jetting is too rich?

 

Just a thought...
