Exhaust almost touching tank

[Irongamer727]

My Arrow exhaust is dangerously close to the tank, according to my measurements around 4 mm. Will this be a problem?

Got any photos bud?

I mean my DEP was close, but not that close.

[Calum]

Doesn't look too bad, is it close is it?

[Irongamer727]

@calum 4 mm

@irongamer727 not a very good picture can you get one so we can see the underside of the tank

Line the underside of your tank with heatproof asbestos or similar exhaust wrap if your worried, I done this to my water expansion tank as it touched my silencer, but really I wouldn't worry.

Asbestos! You are kidding! Buy some self adhesive heat reflecting foil readily available on ebay, used it on new side panels, easy to do.

@oldman asbestos exhaust wrap, very good stuff

[oldman]

In true blue Peter fashion here is one I prepared earlier. Would avoid anything containing any asbestos like the plague, not sure if modern exhaust wrap contains it any more, more likely to contain glass fibres now.

@irongamer727 I did the same mod as @oldman suggested. I used this stuff from ebay;

It was top quality, super easy to use and worked really well too !!!
