No, I have the coating on my exhaust. I had it done local. Although the temp will be lower, have them coat the entire area. The real bennifit is the quickness in cooling after you shut down.

When using a carb heat muff, do you need to mask off the area under the heat muff so as to not allow the jet coating in this area. > > I ask because jet coating is suppose to lower the temps radiating from the exhaust tubes and I wonder if this would lower the temps needed to get could carb heat and cabin heat off of the exhaust tubes. > > Also, I am looking to add cabin heat and I would love to get tips and any pics of cabin heat plumbing. Did you drill hjoles in your exhaust muff to get your air supply or did you use a muff with 3 inlet outlets to allow for cold air intake plus carb heat and cabin heat? > > Jeff York > KR-2 Flying > N839BG > Home page http://web.qx.net/jeffyork40/ > My KR-2 http://web.qx.net/jeffyork40/Airplane/ to see my KR-2 > Email [email protected] > _______________________________________ > Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp > to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to [email protected] > please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html > > >
