header coatings...

[Superdave]

I seem to remember a local place that does header coatings similar to Jet-Hot... anyone have any idea what the name of the place is?

It was posted on one of the Fbody sites a while back... but i think they have forum pruning enabled so searching isn't as easy....

Thanks for any info

I had my long tubes coated by Jim and I really like the results.

Same here. Quality job. Fair price. And being local is great if you have a problem.

[Superdave]

If you guys don't mind me asking, how much did they charge?

it'll be 2 V6 headers and a crossover pipe...

230.00 For my V-8 F-Body

$125 for my long tubes. I had it done in the high temp matte black coating. I think that is cheaper than the sterling.

how are your under-hood temps?

I'd like to keep it as cool as possible in there, these headers run really close to the thermostat housing and one of the rear coolant lines...

[Sukkoi19]

I am not sure. I did not pay any attention. Sorry.

Not to hate, I like jim and all but I have had both sterling and matte black done. Both started rusting through within a year and looking like ass. I have also had jet hot and they lasted much longer. Jet hot is actually just about the same price wise as jc for the long tubes.

[Sukkoi19]

Jet hot is 450 plus shipping two ways, and that was for the matte black finish. I had my long tubes qouted at that price one year ago.

[Broken 5.3]

I paid 250....

Sweet, Good info. Thanks!


Well, since our offer was accepted on a house it looks like i might just have to take my sandblaster to them and give them a few coats of hi-temp paint.
