Anyone know if JB Weld sticks to the UIM well??

Anything else that works?

I'm sure any type of high heat two part epoxy would work.

Or my favorite Marine Tex
We use to fill the intake ports in our Peripheral Port Rotaries with this stuff. Never and issue.
Go to a Marine Supply Store for it.

I actually plugged a hole in an engine block with it once. It worked out well. Amazing stuff. Stronger than JB Weld!

I second a good 1:1 epoxy.

Off topic.

Where is the stock IAT sensor?

I have been data logging boost runs ant the IAT just sits there.

Yes, i suppose I could do a search.
