Default Anyone with edelbrock drag headers...

These come painted correct? Does the paint actually stay on, or does it peel after 5 seconds like every other header paint ive seen?


Also, the collectors need to be welded on right? Are there sealing issues with not being able to fully weld all the joints on the inside of the collectors?

These Edelbrock LT's do not leak at the merge collector and the paint does not peel. You will like the installation of these as well as the ground clearance.
