[QUOTE="96dreamer, post: 16198531, member: 52560"] The idea with the foil was just to keep an epoxy from stick to the adapter. From there I mixed up the two part epoxy called Splash Zone and filled in all the ledges trying to make the transition from upper to adapter as smooth as possible. This stuff is super strong and used to repair boat hulls and props. It's water proof and resistant to most chemicals. [ATTACH=full]1573452[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1573453[/ATTACH] This stuff mixes up to make a terrible diarrhea green color but is pretty thick and kept form quite well. Here's the end result after letting it set up for a few days and peeling back the foil. [ATTACH=full]1573454[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1573455[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1573456[/ATTACH] I rolled some shim stock up and shoved it in the IAC hole before putting in the epoxy.
