Fixed the exhaust leak in my Tioga. The last bolt on the right exhaust manifold was broken (Ford 360). I was able to drill it out and retap the hole with the help of a right angle drill and a mirror. Closed the .013 gap down to .002 then put 2 coats of high temp 'ThermoSteel' over the remainder.
Also put that shiny bubble insulation on the inside of the engine dog house. Just cut to fit then use spray adhesive. Tape and/or clamp insulation in place until adhesive sets. Really cuts the sound and heat down.
That stuff is not high temp rated and will probably melt when the weather is hot ..... might even cause a fire. Try using a heat gun on it and see what happens ..... it just shrivles up
