Default Powdercoat question

Has anyone on here had a stock set of fuel rails coated? Only readon I ask is I've never taken a set apart where the regulator is located, aftermarket rails & LS2 rails dont have this piece on them. Just wanting to make sure nothing internally on the rails will be compromised if they are baked for powder coating.

LOL, well 33 views & no one else has a comment or knows either. I dont feel so dumb now at least, LOL. Im just curious cause I've never ripped the guts out of a stock set & wasnt sure if there was any thin metal internals that could deform under too much heat & render the rails ruined.

i was wondering this too. I've gotta do my set of LS2 stock rails. The rails have been sitting for a while, but I wonder if the fuel will have had enough time to evaporate completely..... or if 400* is even hot enough to detonate it anyway.

I've ripped some apart and have cut and welded a set without any problems. I don't see any problems arising from coating them.
