Stop the heat...save your headers. |
|
Kool Coat's header coatings are the
most technologically advanced coatings on the market today. The
most popular coating by far is the metallic-ceramic.
You get a chrome like finish without the expense
of chrome plus protection that lasts 17 times longer.
Kool Coat header coatings:
- Withstand 2000°F temperatures (black
finish only)
- Reduce under-hood temperatures
- Reduce exhaust manifold surface temperatures
- Improve exhaust gas velocity
- Increase your HP

Won't lift crack or flake.
Unlike other coatings on the market. Kool Coatings
won't chip, lift, crack or flake. They continue to provide maximum
protection for the entire life of your headers.
Take a look at the table below and you can see the
amount of temperature drop that the Kool Coat Ceramic coated header
provides! Header wraps provide a similar drop in temperature but
do not provide the internal corrosion resistance that our ceramic
coatings provide. Exhaust gases are extremely corrosive and have
a tendency to deteriorate headers from the inside out. By coating
both internal as well as external surfaces, not only are the temperatures
reduced but also coating both internal as well as external surfaces
maximizes the corrosion resistance.

It has been determined that engine efficiency
improves by 1% for every 10° degree drop in under-hood temperature.
If we were to use the above data, we could reasonably assume that
we would obtain a 50 horsepower increase
on a 500 horsepower engine.

found a way to keep the heat in the cockpit down, and my
