[QUOTE="19Brendan81, post: 1233287, member: 59625"] I did this last night, using a compressor and an oxy. I used 4 layers of cloth tape over the inlet to the pipe (where it bolts to the motor) and a hose clamp. At the outlet end of the pipe, I used a push bike inner tube valve with about two inches of rubber left attached around the base. This was also clamped on with a hose clamp. The pipe we were doing had about half a dozen tiny holes in it, so it wasnt airtight. Which was kind of handy in a way as it prevented over pressurisation. We got the first dent out with about 10psi, the second much larger dent took 30psi and a lot more work. We then moved on to some dents in the header section of the pipe, about 8 inches from the cloth tape and hose clamp....we got one out with about 25PSI, then moved to the second and it was being stubborn. We hit 35PSI before the bung blew out. (the tape wasnt breeched, it just slid off the end). We packed up after that. I will definately do this again, but would be hesitant to do it in the header sections of the pipe where the metal is much thicker, and the heat much closer to the seal we made. [/QUOTE]
