with paint drying i have started getting pieces back on the car.
manifold was left in the electrolysis tank to get it perfectly clean and all the crud off it, then it was painted in POR15's high temp paint in their cast colour.
then it was to be baked in the oven for 15mins on 170c, then upped it to 200c for 15 mins and again at the max the little oven would do just to be on the safe side, as a few people have said it doesn't like getting hot to quickly.
then off to mounted with new gasket and nuts
downpipe also got a similar treatment but this time attacked with multiple goes with Bilthamber deox gel, followed with POR15's paint.
bonnet back on as we are running out of space in our small garage lol
few more odds and sods going back on now and its starting to abit more like a Citroen AX GT again.
