Stainless steel headers vs ceramic coated.
We offer a variety of materials from 321 stainless and 304 stainless to mild steel.
Looking at jegs lmr ebay for some shorty headers for my 302 roadster build.
Chrome just looks good but is the worst choice.
The ceramic actually blocks alot of the heat if they are coated inside and out.
Compared to a standard painted surface a ceramic coated header can run up to 50 cooler surface temperature.
Ceramic coating takes the heat and retains the superior finish.
Heard that stainless is better for rust resistance and strength whereas ceramic coated is better for heat dissipation and better fitment.
They don t rust so the coating won t flake off like it can on mild steel headers.
Ceramic coating stainless headers is the best way to go.
I also agree with the lower temps.
What do you use recommend.
Stainless will radiate more heat into the engine compartment than ceramic coated headers will.
Also since the heat is staying inside the headers the exhaust gases will be hotter and will flow more remember as air cools it becomes more dense.

Normally precoated ceramic headers cost about twice as much as their uncoated counterparts but that isn t always true.
Stainless headers cost significantly more than mild steel headers closing the price gap between them and ceramic coated mild steel headers.
