Russ_vr6 12 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 question,would painting the manifold cause any change in inlet temp? silly question but i was thinkin of paintin mine blk and common sense says blk keeps heat in? Link to post Share on other sites
mk3anni 0 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Painted mine with black exhaust paint.Never really thought about the engine temp, I just happened to have the manifold off the car and saw the paint in the garage!!!! Link to post Share on other sites
richievr 1 Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 the difference is probably negligable - as it gets pretty hot anyway .. Link to post Share on other sites
