I ran into this last year as well and ended up giving McMaster Carr a shot. I only got to try it for one race day but it definitely got good and hot in my mono with most of the pipe sitting under the top deck. It held up as well as anything else I've seen and for the price you cant beat it.

Heres the number I used. 51135K461

I do not stock 1/8" wall as part number suggests.

I do carry 3/16" wall, which I believe MC doesn't carry.

and my 1/4" wall Is about the same or little cheaper with the discount.total cost.

All are rated at 500 deg.

auto parts stores have the braided blue silicone high temp tubing...

use spacers for gaps larger than 1/2"

REALLY ? What is this stuff called ? How high of a temp can it withstand?

PM Mike Hughes here on the site. He has some "secret" black tubing that works awesome. It will be the first and last coupler you will ever use. It is probably heater hose off of a car and he rubs the markings off, but I don't care. I have had great success with it!

Do you still need to run water cooled exhaust header with any of these couplings ? Thanks.

 

[TimothyJones]

I don't on my sport 40 "enclosed cowl" but if your header has fittings, sure why not.
