I'm about to put on the SSI's and hook up my heat. It's a '76 but I already have changed over to stock '73/4 2.0L heat exchangers, muffler and hanger. Have all of the early tubes beadblasted and ready for some type of protection. I'm sure a couble of cans of hi-temp header paint is cheaper, but will hi-temp powdercoating last longer/give better rust protedtion.

Ben, have not really checked out the price of the powdercoating. All the parts are already blasted. Q-tip did it after work so the price was $0.00. What is going to cost me for you to show some Sunday and lend a hand?

What is going to cost me for you to show some Sunday and lend a hand? Nothing. But not this next time... I had one side off, and the other fell off on the way out of the Costco parking lot in Gypsum. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Why not bead blast both sides and PC if it's reasonable? We'll do both cars. Mine and yours!
