wtb resbond and fire sleeve
 
I'm going to pull the turbo on my car to do the inconel studs and a bunch of other things. I would like to heat sleeve the coolant lines. I have a FM heat shield to go on but I'm not even sure that it covers the area around the coolant lines.

so what size sleeve should I buy for the coolant lines behind the turbo? also thinking about doing something for the turbo oil line, not sure what I have yet, perhaps I should make a stainless an line if i have rubber.

the car came with a FM turbo kit but it is at least 5 years old.

does anyone sell a small bottle of the resbond thread lock, would rather not buy a big bottle if I only need a few drops.

I know a while ago there was one guy who bought the larger bottle and sold the rest on here in small bottles. just an idea.

Our stud kit comes with a small bottle of Resbond.

I didnt know about you guys when I bought the stud kit. would you be able to sell me just the resbond stuff.

I think Bat Inc has the fire-sleeve listed by hose size.

We don't sell the Resbond separately, no.

Mcmaster-carr sells some high temp threadlocker. It doesn't say Resbond, but it does say it's good to 2100F.

Click on "extreme temperature"

I just ordered some to go with a FM inconel kit, so not sure how either will perform yet.

I bought my resbond here:http://www.034motorsport.com/fluids-...ted-p-609.html

worst thread title ever.

psreynol 03-16-2012 10:28 PM

sorry you don't approve. what would be a better title?

I bought a big bottle of Resbond to assemble my hot stuff. I'd need to find a small bottle to put some in but I'm game to sell a bit. The label says it should be used within 6 months of opening or something similar and I popped it around new year's. Send me a PM if you are interested.

psreynol 03-17-2012 08:38 AM

im pulling the turbo within the next couple days so yeah, I would be interested but it might not be worth the efort if you dont have extra bottles,who does, unless you are a scientist for something

x8mrxjohn8x 03-30-2012 04:23 PM

I would be interested in a small bottle too. That makes 2 people now so it might be a good idea to source for small bottles. I sent you a PM mr_hyde

If you put some Resbond in a baby bottle with some fire-sleeve shavings and suck it, you'll get f@cked up!

multiple colors of fire sleeve at wirecare.com by the foot. black, red, white, and orange of course.

I'm actually ordering some fire sleeve tonight myself. Best price I could find was on eBay. Looks like a reputable seller and will meet my needs. Noice!

You got a link to the one you're looking at?

And what size would we need to protect the heater core lines back by the turbo?

mr_hyde 03-31-2012 01:16 AM

I'm at MRLS this weekend and then out of town for work all next week. When I get home the following weekend I'll have plenty of time to bottle some and figure out a fair price shipped. Postage and the bottles will be most of the cost.

slmhofy 03-31-2012 02:30 AM

Have fun out there Hyde! Hope your car runs great.

I just hope it doesn't blow up and if it does, that it waits until after lunch Sunday...
