I work for a frined of mine sometimes when he gets behind. He has his own business as a mechanic. He has a Pro Stock Pulling Truck, 480 cid, aluminum heads, hard block, and a bunch of other goodies for that prot. He runs alchol and the rules state the headers MUST exhaust UPWARDS through the hood. His have faded and flaked off. Granted they get real damn hot. They shouldnt flake, I can understand a little fading from being exposed to the sun and weather more than underhood headers but not the flaking. He has gotten his recoated and has a warranty to get them recoated an many times as he needs. But it's just a pain in the butt to have to ship them off to have them redone.
