Yeah I wanted to install them as I drove around 18hrs to get them! lol...then Flyer decided to sell his TT3K. I had to jump on the stall man! Ah well the road trip to LA was fun anyway!

 

:d :d :d

 

Nope not a knick,that's what happens when the steering shaft rub's it.The dent in the bottom one is what happens when the guy doing paint work for you decides to take your truck home and hits a Toyota Camery at like 70 mph and totals your truck out.

 

What type of paint is he using? I wasn't aware of powdercoating being able to withstand header temps, especially if you plan on driving your truck hard. You're looking at temps at least 900-1300 degrees on those headers. Most powdercoating bakes off around 700 degrees.

 

I was doin' a lil before so I was a bit when I got there.

 

apparantely he said it'd take up to 1500 degrees, but I think I'm going to look around and get some more known header coating and use that instead.

 

I'd think if powder coating could handle header temps, we would be seeing fruity colored headers by now. I hope that never happens.

 

those are asm's correct. where were the collectors bought at. i want to change mine because they have a bad habbit of blowing gaskets. i have never liked the flat style collector.

 

I'd be willing to bet that your headers would see that temp on occasion. I'm not saying it can't be done but the powder coater that coated my calipers said he gets alot of calls from people wanting thier headers coated. He tells them he can do it but he won't guarantee the durability or finish even with the high temp stuff. It literally bakes it so hard that it flakes off. Once properly cured, powder coating is supposed to remain flexible and feel almost "plasticky".

 

Flyer has his TOGs powder coated...
