Has anyone measured the temperature of the exhaust PIPES either as they exit the bottom cowl, or closer to the tips? Not the egt, but the pipes themselves.
Thanks, Don McDonald

I had my exhaust pipes ceramic coated inside and out. This resulted in a dramatic reduction in radiated heaat.

The downside to such coatings is that once coated they can never be weld
repaired. Just one of the trade-offs we have to weigh and make our choices.

Hey Don,
I never saw a reply on your question re exhaust pipe temp, so today I aimed an infrared sensor at the exhaust pipes just as they clear the cowling. 250 F and it's 65 outside. He had just landed and I took it as he stopped after taxi with the engine still running. The numbers bounced around a bit (wind?) but 250 seemed about average.
I'm curious what you'll do with this number? If it's about protecting the fiberglass from heat, I've thought of using the same type of heat shield that is on motorcycle headers -- a strap clamp around the pipe that holds a metal shield off with an air gap in between. But if the adhesive reflective tape works just as well, that may do the trick.
Later, - Lew
