I was planning to repair some of my internal and external exhaust components with JBweld , do you think JBWeld will handle the heat and pressure/vibration ??
the parts that are rusted out are in the end (internal) and some holes rusted through on the muffler body.

I don't know man. I would either braze it or mig it. Jb weld is worthless IMO, I does not make a quality repair for anything. Again, just my opinion but you won't see any "B J Weld" on any of my equipment.

I tried to use JB weld on a go-karts exhaust and it did not hold for more than a hour. I also personally think JB weld is over rated.

Catch me if you can
braze it if not too big of a hole

if you clean the area, and scuff it up, its alright. i wouldnt use it for anything bigger than a hairline crack personally. theres some stuff call "quicksteel" it handles 500 degrees where jb weld only takes 250. you can get it at wal-mart or autozone for under 5 bucks. if at all possible, get your stuff fixed right the first time. booger welding will only hold for so long.

The thing I hate most about people using JB weld Is when they try to use It without cleaning the area. Then when It does'nt hold, they want It welded & you have a hard time welding the area because you have to get every spec of the JB weld off or It contaminates the weld.
