We always use to have the Discussion of weather to Install on a Cold Day , or Warm Day
Install Cold Bar into Hot Bay , or Install Hot Bar Into a Cold Engine bay . . Etc..
What We found for Road Cars was to have a slightly Warm Bay and have Summer Temp Bar say 75-80 Degrees . .
Or in Auto's in garage @ 60 Degree's Bar from Warm House -72-75 Degrees for Fall Winter Install ..
Race set up Solid Bar Hot - installed in Cold Bay for Inward Tension . .
This Set Up has Bolts that would be Tq. to Spec's to Allow Proper Tension , BUT NOT TOO Much Tension as in Race Set Up ..
I Mean to say Body Putty & Spot Welds are able to Only take so much . .
