put some silicone over the soldered joints otherwise they'll oxidise in the door and you'll get a dry joint. they'll stop working when they go dry.

just a tip

Also a update.

The other night at ace cafe I tried to park on the curb... Not a good idea cos all of a sudden boom. I got stuck on my manifold

And after ace I started to hear blowing of the exhaust on the way home.

So next day I jack it up to find my manifold had split pretty much in half

So I contacted my buddie little Tom. And he had a enlarged 421 mani fold. So I snapped that up

But got to wait till I can go powerflow on Saturday morning to get the system made for the manifold as it has a different route than the standard one.

So Saturday should be all good again

Il get pics of the manifold and door cards and jacking points as soon as my car is clean lol.
