The Ti-TECH coating is now the standard coating that will be applied to all Edelbrock headers and the new Sound Deflection Technology chambered mufflers. There are several key advantages to the Ti-TECH coating.
1.) It offers the protection of a ceramic coat at traditional painted pricing. This is due to the fact that Ti-TECh is actually a ceramic based paint that withstands temperatures in excess of 1600-degrees F.
2.) The cost of the Ti-TECH is not in addition to, again, this is now the standard coating that will be applied. The new coating did increase the production cost slightly and will probably impact the retial pricing in the neighborhood of $20.00 over the traditional crap paint. So it is well worth the added expense.
3.) It looks cool. Ti-TECH is a satin titanium color and looks really clean in any engine compartment.
With all this being said, the new Ti-TECH process is in fact up and running and has been for several weeks. It may take a little time for Distributors to cycle existing inventories, but all current production is Ti-TECH coated and will be from here on out.

Thanks,

I'm guessing places like SDPC have inventory that they still need to get rid of. That was one of the reasons I was holding off on buying them was the coating. I don't mind taking the headers and having the O2 bosses welded on as well as the collectors...
This might be the Christmas present I wanted.
Thanks.
