What brand seal? Are you using silicone or window spray to make the gasket easier to slide on the windshield? Then put rope in the back, install from the front, and pull the rope out as you pull in and it'll seat itself....sounds easy, huh ;)

no silicone just rubber seals but i dont think we can put a rope in between

I used a fat speaker wire when I helped a friend do it, we also used a heat gun to help soften it up and a suction cup to help move it around. Here's a youtube link that makes it look so easy :metal:

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide custom/10
 
i dont know if any of you have ever seen the terrets guy vidoes on you tube, but i feel like him, (ah sh#&!!!!!):lol: this stupid paint. i shook the crap out of the can ,i put acetone, (but not too much) i cleaned the paint gun really good, (it spilled on the floor, which we wiil be moving out by the 8th so thats not good) now i need to go wire wheel the cement so its gone. i spilled on my self and all i managed to do, is try and get the paint to come out right AND STRAIGHT, so i sprayed it on some inner fenderwells. it looks like i undercoated them:lol: but still this is the second timeit has done this to me, i am about ready to throw it in the garbage:sumo::waah::banghead::dohh::m6::m7::mad:, and buy another type of paint but my dad paid 50 bucks for it, so before i do anything else, i am going to study the crap out of this paint. anyways im not dicoureged .just seeing my truck sit there still makes me happy so i will look for something else to do and hopefully it will go right oh and SORRY FOR THE LONG POST .....

If you have a pressure washer, that should get rid of the paint on the cement. Hey just figure it as a learning experience :metal:
I bet it wont happen again right ? :lol:

No you don't need hi temp paint on the air cleaner. Only the exhaust. Even the engine block and heads don't get hot enough to use special paint. If your engine is over 240 degrees you have problems. I painted my engine with 2 stage paint. Base coat, clear coat and it is fine. Been on there for 9 years.
