Anybody have experience with this? I'm thinking of putting it on the borla header AND on the intake manifold. Even thinking of putting some on the contact/gasket surface of the intake manifold to keep heat from the head from soaking in. Sounds like a winner to me.

I have heard all good things about their products and actually plan on coating my header (Banks), midpipe, pistons, and bearings with their coatings.

Awesome, sounds like a strong reference. Do you plan on doing any of that coating yourself? Are you going to use that same exact product on your header, or a different one of theirs?

I've had someone's coating. It didn't last. First cam break in took it off. I think some of them recommend you coat it after the break in.

Yea, I think that even though they say for this one that it will cure by the heat of the header, I will probably oven bake it. I hope this stuff doesn't come off.

I am still deciding between that one and the TurboX header coating and will be doing all of the work myself. They do recommend not using coated headers during the camshaft break-in so I may hold off on the header right away.
