#84375 TOPNOTCH (User) Git-R-Done Expert Boarder Posts: 556 Cobra Drags Burnt ! 4 Years ago   I am running the Cobra Drags without baffles. My carb is dialed in a hair on the rich side. Where the heat sheilds end there is about 3-4" kinda brown burn (not really blue and not really gold) marks. I have seen this on one other set of Cobra Drag pipes in someones picture on the clinic. My question "is this something that is just prone to Cobra pipes or do I probly need to do somemore tweaking on my Carb ?   Logged     Christian American Heterosexual Pro-Gun Conservative...Any Questions???

The clamp just might need tightened.   Logged     04 MIDNITE SILVERADO   The administrator has disabled public write access. #84483 TOPNOTCH (User) Git-R-Done Expert Boarder Posts: 556 Re:Cobra Drags Burnt ! 4 Years ago   Bumpity Bump Bump   Logged     Christian American Heterosexual Pro-Gun Conservative...Any Questions???

I have also seen some Longshots that had yellowing in about the same spot. As Blackroadie suggested .... no air leak at the joint.

Simichrome polish should take the discoloring away. As the others suggested check for leaks or loose connection.   Logged     Paul K&N, V&H Powershots, 185DJ, Stock Pilot, 3.25pms   The administrator has disabled public write access. #84573 TOPNOTCH (User) Git-R-Done Expert Boarder Posts: 556 Re:Cobra Drags Burnt ! 4 Years ago   Thanks for the input guys. They are actually one piece. No connection except at the Jugg. They just flare out a little where the heat shield ends.   Logged     Christian American Heterosexual Pro-Gun Conservative...Any Questions???

I ended up using the oem exhaust gaskets and the FelPro ones as well. I put the oem on first and then the FelPro that way the pipe seat down into the FelPro deep enough to seal.   Logged     My Site Black Ice is Shiny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access.
