How close is your Kb racing or Trick log manifold to your a/c compressor bulkhead? I am building my own and I think I may have made my runners too long as I have about 3/8'' clearance.

 

pics?

 

Can you get a picture?

i have about 1/2" clearance at the closest spot.. but thats with heat wrap on it kinda heavy.

 

pics, what is an AC bulkhead?

 

Im thinking he meant the port boss that comes off the compressor with the two lines?

 

Damn is that what it's called yeah thats it and I must have made my runners a little long. I'm gonna run it anway no way I'm gonna do that again any time soon. I probably have over 8 hours in it. I will put a heat shield on it and wrap the log.

 

How many layers of wrap you got on it? Just did mine and I also went kinda heavy.

 

its one run.. but a lil over 70% overlap. so its kinda thick.

 

Yea just wrap the log good and I would use some DEI Cool-Tape on all of the AC lines. I wrapped all of my lines and even the dryer with that stuff and it defiantly made the AC run cooler.

 

I went a little overboard last week re-wrapping some of my pipes. I did two sometimes three runs over certain areas overlapping %50-75 most of the time. I also used silicone spray on all the wrap when it was all said and done. I still have the actual manifolds to do but won't do that until I pull the truck apart again but did do the crossovers and DP.
Hope it helps keep the engine bay temps down more than they've been.
