Yep, and thermal dispersion for the outside fins of the heads
all available for about 120 bucks from CeraKote C-187 transfer grey thermal dispersion V--36 PISTON COAT (Oven Cure) C-109 MICRO SLICK DRY FILM LUBRICANT COATING (OVEN CURE) I may also add the micro slick to the valve stems too and the piston coat to the chambers and valves QUOTE(Cairo94507 @ May 30 2023, 09:47 AM)  |
