Sorry,,the 3 yr old was at the computer!

 

Thank you very much. When I anodise I will be doing it for purely cosmetic purposes, but I am very interested to see how the Jet coating will affect temperatures!!

Then you also changed your post as well? Obviously you can understand the confusion here, right?

I'll just keep drinking

 

Luke, let us know how much it costs for the anodizing. Post pics too...before/after if you would be so kind.......

The heat wont matter a bit. Look at all the other motor parts out there on other cars that are coated and hold up just fine. Sounds like a great idea.

Good luck.

RENNTAG,

Yes I understand the confusion. It was a joke. <img src="graemlins/roflmao.gif" border="0" alt="[hiha]" /> I guess my humor just isn't that funny .

I am getting my intake man. cam shaft housing, and the aluminum gaurd around the distributor anodised for $50. It's good stuff too.

 

anodized not powder coated?
Thats cool. good price too.
Put up some pics.

 

I'm going to powder coat my intake manifold (as well as a bunch of other stuff) next week...mainly for cosmetic reasons, as well as making it easier to clean. I am going to do my camshaft housing next time I have to replace the timing belt (or head gasket) too. I'm going to try to snag my dad's crappy digital camera so I can snap off a bunch of before and after shots of my car and all the stuff I am doing. Best of luck...

 

If anyone is still reading,,how about some temp readings;

Ambient Temp: 54°

Car was in the garage @idle untile the temp needle moved off cold.

Car was driven for about 20 minutes, left it running at the marina for about 5 minutes, drove it home, parked it in the garage, opened the hood, and got the laser temp.

intake : runners 88-92°
flats between runners 101-103°
head : just under 1&2 190°

water pump: 178°

turbo hot side: 452°
down pipe: 438°

exhaust manifold:
exit point: 510-542° increasing from 1-4
4 being the hottest
shielded exhaust: 418-462°
exhaust joined : 585-600°

Just for calibration the gun and the gauge in my freezer were 2° apart.

FYI
