If it was coated inside and out, would it make a difference in the higher temps of it v.s. a plactic LS6 intake?

 

Jet Hot Coating wouldn't be ideal for this application. You would need a thermal barrier coating on the intake such as Polydyne or SpeedCoat. These are both companies that do the coating. A large assortments of finishes are made especially for covering parts like intakes, pistons, rods, and even bearings if you have the money to do all of this. I have a brand new coated Holley I decided not to use after getting a sheetmetal intake. If you need some information about the coating or are interested in the intake itself drop me an e-mail.

 

I understand why you would coat the intake (to keep performance from degrading from all the heat), but is that the same reason you would coat the pistons, rods, and bearings? I think that I have heard of someone coating the heads, too. But I thought you wanted the heads to hold heat to make power.... I would be very appreciative if you could explain why you would coat internal parts and how they would affect performance.

 

they have coatings for each app.
keep heat in the chamber because heat is hp.
call polydyne, there in houston texas, and talk to them. carl is the man to talk to about it. he will help you out alot.

need the number let me know ill look it up in my files.

tell him i sent ya...
