Yeah the pipe works well with those clamps. No melting at all. but i don't race my car or anything ... just normal driving.
I don't see what the big jerking motion you speak of is? my injectors slid out like a knife through butter.
Does no one else use anti-seize on everything?
yes, i use anti seize on alot of things, but one thing to remember, for aluminum, and general use use the silver anti seize. for high heat use like on turbos and that sort, use the copper high heat stuff. dont use copper never seize on bolts that are threaded into aluminum. since there dis-similar metals, the copper starts to eat away the aluminum. ive never actually seen a case of this, just what some old mechanics told me many moons ago.

I literally got the nozzles in the day before and changed them in the next day in like an hour with just a 13mm socket&wrench. a 27mm deep socket & wrench. and that torque wrench. oh, and a crescent wrench and some lacquer thinner. and paper towel. Go through all the crap of making a pop tester? you gotta be kidding me!
its always good enough the way it is if it starts! People are too fussy on here :p .
For the record my build makes 55 mpg. My old mileage before i "abused" my car was 25mpg.

how do you get 25mpg? the lowest ive ever seen from my car is 35. and that was with a pretty constant black cloud behind me too. and i wore a few thousand miles off my tires too.

Bosch would shoot you in the head if they heard you were using 600 grit sandpaper. You should use at least 2000 if you are going to sand them at all.
What happens when you use such a rough grit??

Global financial meltdown...
OR
It would leave gouges in the surface not alowing it to seal properly.. Sort of like if you sanded the cylinder head surface with 20 grit..

Soo basically the difference between the two is Hiroshima and a Hand Grenade
