Hey! I know exactly where you are! My G/F's family lives up there. Shes originally from Burlington.. whew I was up there in April once and I woke up with about about 4-6 inches of snow on my car.. Never again! Real beautiful place though around Lake Geneva.
But heh, I can't help you out with your question sorry.

Thanks anyway Mooney.
Right now wer'e up to our ash in snow. Anyway I drove 90 miles there and back to find out ceramic coated headers need to be treated like any of the paint for header application .They need to be treated in a breakin prosses. The problem I'm haveing is he does NOT recommend puting the new headers on a first time turn-over and breakin of a new motor.He thinks that between timing, carb tuning, and anything else that goes with breakin the temps. could easily exceed 2000 degrees, which could burn or blister the coating.SO anyone reading this BEWARE.Anyone else ran into this situation. I was realy not planning on installing the headers 2 times but it may be nescesary Any thoughts or comments ???Sodi
