If not has anyone have any suggestions on what to coat them with,been down the spray bomb high temp paint route in the past. You have to take pics before you fire the motor up as it instantly burns off as i am sure most of you know........Thanks, Dale

My aluminum coated headers on my SBC have lasted 18 years so far and I expect to get another year or two out of them.
