With a lot of these high temp paints, you should let the car idle once the parts are installed to help the coating/paint cure. Multipul 10 min. sessions should help bake the coating on. 2005 Ford F150 SuperCab FX4 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS 1998 CSVT: 354HP/328TQ @ 10 psi, now gone

Yeah, right. Oh well, at least his truck still sounds good, even if the headers look .

The thermotec stuff is $9 a can, and it survuved my turbo piping without peeling. It's rated at 2000 though. 2005 Ford F150 SuperCab FX4 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS 1998 CSVT: 354HP/328TQ @ 10 psi, now gone
