Originally posted by morbid: i dislike shiny bling, so i was hoping to have mine done in black. Guess I should have asked Marty what colors they coat in, but Jethot can do black. Last thing i need in my engine bay is something that screams "Hey you emissions checker, look at me! I'm an offroad only device!"
I want the coating for thermal reasons.
I've given this about 15 seconds of thought... Is there a way the heat shield from the Zetec cars could be adapted to cover the headers & make them look all factory & also help keep heat away from the radiator & other sensitive items under the hood?
Sup'm to think about...
don't see why not, it isn't like it is some highly expensive hard to work with metal, at least to my knowledge
sounds like a good idea to me but is there space for something like that
Should only need about 1/4" clearance from the header - other than the connection points, of course. Any shielding is better than none in this case. Those headers do get HOT.
