Lol! 😂

I would look into TechlineX for a budget option. Tirado Custom Coatings or Calico also have good coatings, although they aren't as budget friendly.

I wrapped the skirts in teflon tape and painted the tops with high temp paint. No sense spending money on an LS build.

Funny, and willing to spend money on my engine build. If my wife ever leaves me, I can use that on my personal description @ farmersonly.com.
