so ive used this stuff at work many time its good stuff but the holes instead of drilling them get what is called molders wax its an aresol wax and spray it on soda straws and insert them into the devcon they will pull out being the devcon will not adhear to the wax also good to wax the machined surface the epoxy will not adhear to the machined surface but it makes it much easier to break loose if by chance it does

best way to make sure it adhears into the block is by using a diegrinder or a pencil grinder with a small carbide bit small obviously and make a couple die locks also

die lock(for those of you whom dont know what that means) basically a notch like a jigsaw peice the female side

you dealing with aluminum no need cor carbide bit, and will a rotory tool w/ cable do fine?

TRAILERxPARKxINC

yeah it will do fine and there is a need for a carbide bit a steel bit will load up also using wax on the bit helps to keep it from loading up depending on the type of burr you use

Devcon is fully cured. Now I just need to drill the holes. I baked it for four hours in my oven at home and it didnt stink at all. This stuff is incredibly hard, I have no doubt that it will work flawlessly. And with properly drilled coolent holes I dont see why there should ever be a problem with cooling. I will find out though this summer, I plan on daily driving this and we see triple digits in the summer around MN and plenty of traffic.

how does this epoxy hold up to hot tanking

i wouldnt recommend oven curing with my experience with this epoxy it curs harder and stronger when you heat it in the oven for like an hour then pull out and let it cure at room temperature
