My ceramic coated headers will far outlive me. I don't need a system to outlive me, my kids and their kids. Let them build their own system!
Yea. I got a couple of cracks through the mandrel bends on the SS headers Jay Bittle built for me 30 years ago. I was putting my A3 heads on a 351c in my 68.
That set up is out of there 10-12 years already.
I can weld mild steel. SS is a b itch for me to work with. I'm not NASA. Either you need to be or the guy who is building those stainless headers for you does.
Not only that, I have to go back and look up those terms Kelly. If I say hi, do you need to pull out your calculator, run an equation, then say probably? LOL!
The headers on the Holman-Moody Mark IV "continuation: GT40s are all stainless. Tig-welded I presume, and have a strange low level rust color to them.
Me no likey. Look like do-do ka-ka to me.
For a million a car, I'd definitely not be happy with that situation.
Coat me. It does everything I want. No low level rusty surfaces to stress over.
Didn't notice my stainless water pipes were cooler to the touch, or do mean cooler looking BW?
