Re: Choosing Headers and Y-Pipe

The 1200* paint only slows the rust down,It won't protect the pipes from rust like ceramic coating.

The reason I don't like Edelbrocks is the way the premaries are mashed down going into the collectors. Other than that there OK. For there cost there's better options.

^You mean the primaries are smooshed together to fit into the collectors?
Ceramic coating is done inside and out?

Yes and rust forms down between the smashed together pipes pretty badly.

Some places do and some don't. It depends on who the headers are being bought from. JetHot does inside and out but others don'.t

^ I made sure I sprayed the collectors REALLY good inside and out w/ my 1200* paint; I am pretty confident I will keep the rust away for a LOOONG time because I am also using the Rusterminator
