I used a silicone chain lube spray :ohdear:

I hope you never ever plan on painting anything near where you sprayed that. Silicone gets into everything, and is nearly impossible to wash away or dissolve. Many high-end body/paint shops won't allow a car that's been treated with tire shine or armor-all that contains silicone.

I put some on a rag and wiped it in all three channels, to avoid overspray. And sandpaper cures many things :getin:, right?

That's way better than spraying, but like I said, it won't come off easily if you want to paint. Sandpaper won't do it.

Flanges are in, and on three of them, the holes for the exhaust tubing are ever so slightly too small.

Over/under on me dying if I use my ghetto router table and a carbide burr to enlarge them 1-2mm? I have 1.625 tubing and it just won't fit in.

I could buy a carbide burr for my dremel, but that's eight holes.

Also I can't find my 6mm shank burr. Carbide wood bits and all of the protective clothing?

router+flanges=fingers gone. Get a burr for the dremel, or use a stone to grind them out.

Nordlocks are awesome. I use a ton of the 316SS ones on the gear I make, and they really work. I just wish they made them in 6AL4V Ti...

Yeah, dirt cheap. Micro USB on some models, so they'll plug right into a phone.
