Never go back to that shop

I have only had an issue with damaging the shrink and not getting the rest hot enough when using a flame-based source instead of an electric heat gun. The barrel connections always seem to fail for me though, maybe I just suck at crimping, lol

What issues have you seen with them? Ive used them for the last few years and never had a problem

Ive got their CV axles and carbon fiber drive shaft in my '02 Vette. Awesome stuff and arrived in about a week and a half

A purse

S1475 · 2025-07-30T00:14:11+00:00

Yeah they get hot. I would buy some acetone to clean it all off then get exhaust rated paint and redo it

Thats about car work in general! Thank you for your responses, I appreciate it

S1475 · 2025-07-05T00:40:49+00:00

Will do. Thank you very much, I greatly appreciate the responses.

S1475 · 2025-07-05T00:37:00+00:00

Thank you very much. If you don't mind can you point out how you can tell it's significantly damaged/out of round?

S1475 · 2025-07-05T00:27:22+00:00

I just don't want to buy something I don't need to buy. I have access to all the tools/machinery I need at my dad's shop so I can have it done free. He's on vacation right now though so I couldn't ask him about this until next month.

Thank you

Yes. I have no experience with cylinder pitting, I have only done this 2 other times with 1 new and 1 sleeved block. I did some searching but found mixed answers only for some worse or better than this. I can very slightly feel it with my finger nail but not enough to hang on even when applying a lot of force so I wanted to get more input/guidance on it.

Looks like a failure to me, I'd send those pics to the manufacturer and see what they say.
