Steel on Aluminum rub... fixes?
I'm prepping my Exocet for time attack and having some steel on aluminum rubbing issues. When the car was built, the hood pins were mounted to steel mounts that are rubbing against the aluminum radiator. No bueno.
You can see the steel is rubbing through the aluminum. I figured I would ask the racing guys here as you all probably know of a better fix than I can think up. I was considering having a buddy put some aluminum beads on the rub spots, but that isn't a long term solution. Can you guys think of anything I can put between the two to mitigate the issue? I tried a piece of rubber hose, but getting it to stay in place was not working.
Thanks for any help!
