Re: Heads manifolds
It is for most of us, not sure about California.........
Local auto parts stores, Summit Racing, Jegs, etc all stock different types of engine paint. Ive had good luck with VHT brand. |

Re: Heads manifolds
I bought high heat clear for my Buick exhaust manifolds at O'Reilly's.

Re: Heads manifolds
There a YouTube video out there where the VHT high temp stuff was tested on headers. These guys first tested at normal heat and found the VHT high temp stood up just fine.
Then they retarded the timing and went for a super high heat run. The VHT paint held up once again. Don't have a link sorry. -klb
