Which epoxy to use?

(1/2) > >>

Z28 Eric:
First off, thanks for writing the book Cliff. I own a copy & I've been stepping through your recipes. My 383 stroker has come alive - talk about throttle response! The best part is, I now understand what is going on inside that pile of pot metal called a qjet.

I epoxyed my qjets bottom plugs using some 1 hour epoxy & after less than 100 miles, it's already pealing off. I have a '76 qjet, so I'm not really worried about leakage. I just want the added insurance for peace of mind.

I noticed that Cliff's pics in his book showed some different varieties of epoxy. I'm curious what type of epoxy this is & where to get it?

Thanks!

Jeff Walker:
I use Marine-Tex, they gray kind.  If you Google it you can find several sources for it.  This was the epoxy that Cliff recommended to me to use.

Z28 Eric:
Thanks Jeff.

 where did you find it ??

Z28 Eric:
It looks like boating places tend to sell it. I googled "marine tex epoxy" and found a few places that have it listed.
