I think coatings are sprayed on mostly. Then baked. Thus only exterior. At least what I beleive.</div>

<div>The mufflers are -going- to discolor based on your use-case. I can’t recall anybody coating mufflers either.</div>

<span>Here’s a followup on Ron McCalls SS headers. </span><br>
<span>410-596-3170 and Bob Benson just ordered a set for his Pantera. BEAUTIFUL!!!</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>He can build Windsor or Cleveland and the cost is $3,800 + shipping (+|- $250 to left coast). He’s working with a known fabricator now as demand is great but you should still figure 10-12 weeks currently. All American 🇺🇸 sourced material so he is
not inspecting any new tariff material increases. </span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>I have one question for you motorhead engineers. ..</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Do you see merit in having the headers ceremic coating ‘inside’ ???</span><br>
<span>to increase longevity, reduce heat and I ask this because my BORLA taillpipes on my 180’s got hot enough to stain one side.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Appreciate your feedback. For me this year I am just gonna refinish my existing 180’s with new ceremic coating as its been on for 8 years and it no longer is shiny and you know MD Loves his bling 😂🤣</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Yea how time flys!!</span><br>
