    I haven't wrapped a car's exhaust, but I have wrapped the pipes on my bike. The idea there is it's not only for heat protection and esthetics, but that it help add a small increase power and torque by keeping the hot air inside the pipes. If it's the same for cars, then it seems to me both ceramic coating and wrapping would provide the most optimal result.

    I think you should re test with different methods as other said infrared thermometers can read surface temperatures differently based on the color of the surface. This is because different colors have different emissivities, which is a measure of a material's ability to emit infrared radiation. Darker colors typically have higher emissivities and emit more infrared radiation, which can lead to more accurate temperature readings. Lighter colors, on the other hand, have lower emissivities and emit less infrared radiation, which can result in less accurate readings. Lighter colors usually have lower surface temperatures compared to darker colors under the same conditions. This is because lighter colors reflect more sunlight and absorb less heat, while darker colors absorb more sunlight and convert it to heat, resulting in higher surface temperatures.

    Really enjoy your videos. I've researched a front mount oil tank for my latest 911 project and my understanding is that the scavenge pump moves a lot of oil and air: by design it will move a lot more volume than the high pressure oil feed side of the pump. Therefore there has to be a return path for this volume of air to the crankcase, which you are providing with the vent hose. Great job on that design!

    Hey Jonas, great video as always. I was thinking, would it be worth putting a pair of Dry Break Quick Release couplings on either side of your Gearbox mount and on the inlet and outlet of the engine so you can drop it easily for a clutch change etc. without having to drain and fill your Oil system every time. Those couplings look pretty expensive but it would be cheaper and easier than changing all that oil more times than is needed. All the best mate 😉👍

    Fantastic work, love the car, the workshop and I am green with envy. Regarding the oil pipe through mount, not an engineer, but wouldn't it be possible to get your TIG guy to weld more tube to make a little "S" in the pipe to make the angle more favourable? A little like you might with an exhaust? You have plently of spare tube, a friendly TIG welder....? Just a thought.

    ​@@islandworkslove the car and do your thing. Seems like a lot of work to avoid a second can, but I've watched all the videos and can't think of anything you didn't fully think out. That said, are you worried about the oil vapors condensing and ending up as droplets on that long run of hose? Seems like a lot of vapors could cool, condense and end up as oil in the back half the hose and then run back into your intake. Kind of like the gooseneck you were concerned about. Anything that condensed on the front half would run to the tank so no harm, but the back stuff would be my worry. But maybe it's nothing. I sometimes both over and under think things.

    @@rossmacdonald3034 theres always more than one way to solve these issues. I’m not worried about any run back in this setup to the intake as the intake is not connected to the oil system at all. The vent line is directly from the crank case to the oil tank as compared to a standard 964 setup where the tank is vented off into the intake puking oil into the intake (ask me how I know…)

    Just a word of caution (37yrs of Porsche race cars) we had an issue with the pump collapsing the braided lines close to the engine. We ended up running -20 lines and running a 150mm coiled wire inside to maintain the hose diameter. There is a reason why Porsche ran a hard line.

    Poiseuille's law also affects you, as you are working with a fluid (oil) with gas inside it. You are not just doing this in a static condition, but as you brake/accelerate the fluid/gas acts as spring, the diameter of the pipe, length and to add complexity the viscosity of the fluid over temperature, engine speed are all changing the value. Add in the braided pipe which will deform at a percentage of length, which will also deform more at a higher temperature. Your pipe can be calculated to the necessary diameter of the wall required over the length and material of the pipe itself. Running hYeat shield between the fuel lines and a heat source of an exhaust is sufficient in the centre tunnel of a car as air flow is always linear, so front to back. Your oil is never going to be hotter than an exhaust.

    If protecting your plug wires is the concern - start using a silicone based set. Currently, high silicone sets have replaced wire sets that used to "require" a metal heat sheild at the boot due to plugs being just inches from (and nesting between pipes of) the exhaust manifold on "old" trucks like the Ram (circa 1990 Dodge). If further protection is needed, run the wires themselves through a heat wrap/sheath. Also, if you dont want oil getting into the wrap - stop pouring oil on it.

    Please note! That “heat gun” (optical infrared pyrometer) doesn’t actually measure the temperature of the surface. It measures the infrared light being emitted from the surface and this amount of light is based of the emissivity of the surface you are measuring. In this case, you have shiny black paint (pigmented with ceramic particles) and silvery cloth. These substances will provide two very different emissivity values. You can never honestly prove that these painted on ceramic coatings are effective this way. A better way is to touch the surface with a simple digital meat thermometer. This will be the true surface temperature.
