Re: Exhaust manifold coating

[Dave and Liz DuBois <ddubois@sinclair.net>]

Ronald,
    If you are going for originality, you will need to aluminize the
manifold.  This is according to Chip Old in the T Series Handbook.  If
you are not concerned with originality, coat the manifold with whatever
you want.  If you do aluminize the manifold, you may find that you will
have some problems with vapor lock in the channel between the float bowl
and the jet int eh carb body.  If you run into this problem it can be
cured with a heat shield that is made for the Austin Mini.

Good luck,
Dave
