Looking at the summit racing ceramic coated headers for a 70 chevelle/camaro... any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

I had the same expirience with mine but we do live in a different climate then you do. Snow, Salt all that good stuff. They may last longer down there.

I was thinking of using them on my gmc to get the exhaust up a bit higher... and you are correct it is pretty dry here.

Down here a coating really isn't necessary. The black painted headers on my 'other' toy still aren't rusted and they're about 7 years old!
