I've got a post in almost every thread now!!!! Guess i'm just bored.
not really... cermaic coating is just aluminum suspended in a resin.. aerospace technology stuff.. and it does wear out.

Take a look at JBA's. They were the only Stainless Headers I found that were 14 guage (thicker) and also have a lifetime warranty. About 8 to 10 hours to install and came with Percys XX Carbon gaskets.

How much did you pay for those, and what took you 10 hours? I've heard it's a difficult install, but what gave you trouble?

I paid $620 including shipping. Look around, you may find them cheaper. No real problems, just took my time. Retapped all the holes in the heads just to be safe etc. If there was one thing time consuming it was having too many
