I gotta ask if anyone has tried impreg to extend the life of engine manifolds and goose necks? Impreg is a system of submerging a casting that has leaks into a hot 400 deg F vat of low voc plastic and pulling a vacuum on it. The air comes out and the plastic runs in when the pressure is released. The plastic then sets up. I have seen it used to comply with military specs calling for a guarantee of no leaking castings.
I plan on changing hoses on both of my engines and might just blast and impreg the castings as a good measure.
