Default RE: Muffler threads are stripped; how hot does an engine get

Thanks.

I was actually wondering about the actual temperature of a glow engine because I have a friend who can get me a bit of industrial adhesive that might work. Like most engineers, he wants to know such things as actual working temperature range, some weird vibration number, metals bonded, etc. I figure if I give him the high temperature, lots of vibration, aluminum and steel, he can help me out without giving me too much kidding.

This particular engine, without the muffler, is especially quiet after takeoff, since it isn't running any more.
