Default Coating headers

I just got a quote from jet-hot to coat a set of small block ford headers, they want $355 plus $45 to ship, sounds WAY too high. Anybody out there that does it for a reasonable price and make it last????

The price is about what I paid; however I was not satisfied with the coating - started to rust in a couple of years. I received better results in Tenn - but I understand they are not doing headers any longer.

No, Nitroplate isn't coating headers anymore.

Bret, please contact Ricky @ M&R Coatings in Kodak Tn. (865) 933-1478

I just used them last week and did a very good job and was priced very good.

Wink Re: Coating headers

Got 2 sets done about a month ago here,, one set brand new, the other set was several years old. They were $290.00 a set and turned out fine,, one set done in traditional aluminum look, the other in a charcoal colored coating. This was at Performance Coatings in Auburn, Washington,, a little far away, I'm afraid for you Bret.

X3 on Central / Airborne. I have headers they did 15 years ago that are still good.
Jet-Hot is 1/2 hour away and I wont even consider them , most of their work didn't last 2 years.
