----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----Jason, what you have is aluminized (aluminum coated) exhaust stacks. The underlying metal is mild steel. The new ones from Univair are stainless steel, and the Wag stacks are aluminized mild steel. Wag parts in general don't fit well, and, in my experience, their exhaust stacks are horrible.

I do plan to keep this plane for a long time. And while cash is not freely flowing here, I'd rather sit on the ground a little longer to generate that cash to get only the best of parts.I'm fine with sending in both stacks.As for the cylinders, all 4 are new Superior Millennium cylinders. About 200 hours on them.Attached is a photo to show the color of the stacks compared to the muffler. They look like they are coated in something instead of showing their steel like the muffler. Is this what you mean by "mild steel"?I have the engine completely disconnected now. Only the 4 Lord Mount Bolts are left while I hunt down an engine hoist that I can use for a few days (weeks?).I am taking the engine out because I need to replace the accessory cover (I'll make separate post about it), alternator, and such.EVERYONE.... THANKS!------------------------------------------------------------
