Jon, you are the first one to comment on the heat from these headers.
I'm curious as to others thoughts on the heat. I'm just about ready
to send my thorleys off to get coated, just wondering how much of a
difference this might make. What kind of coating is this on the
JBA's? A friend
of mine had some headers put on his LT1 patrol car not long ago, and
after they were installed they ran it on the dyno and after one pull
they shut it off and I felt of the headers and they felt supprisingly
cool after being ran up to 5000 + rpms.... They were Arizona Speed &
Marine headers I think, the coating was a ceramic coating from what I
gathered, looked exactly like the JBA coating. I'm probably going to
send mine to HPC, anyone know of a better place or better coating to
get?
