Yeah, 2 glued together... on each side. So a gasket on each side of that combined spacer.... = 2 of 2 is 4 gaskets!

But if each of the 2 gaskets on each side had a gasket between manifold - spacer - spacer - head, it would need 3 gaskets a side... 6 gaskets!

So, sticking the spacers together means less expensive gaskets used ...


Just get the big hammer on those headers to "ease" them into place...

Apologies

Absolutely not a **** take.
Poorly worded comment
I've been glued to this thread from the start and was gutted for you when it broke at TOTB.
I was asking for some photos of the car since the fire as i was wondering what sort of damage has been caused.

that wont crack either.. its a filler used for bumper repair.. http://www.u-pol.com/countries/en/do...bumperfill.pdf
(there is fibreglass behind the cracks) its also been plastic welded..

I also bought some sikaflex last night to mount the splitter to the bumper along with std issue screws

2K Filler Primer will cover most things.. http://www.u-pol.com/countries/en/do.../tds/S2020.pdf

Remember how many cars i've painted

Watch and learn
