Slammed,

Are you talking about coating or polishing, they are 2 different things. I talked to Craig at GTP about thermal barrier coating the runners on my Holley intake and he said it would be about $250.00. I had it port matched and the runners polished for $100.00. $500.00 is really crazy. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

I think I would just get the manifold JetHot coated.

I had a set of cast aluminum Buick GN valve covers JetHot coated and they looked really nice.

Alot cheaper than the price you quoted.

Good Luck,
Ron

The shop doing my heads said $100 to port match and do some opening up of the runners.Was wondering on ther jet hot coating because $500 to get a show polish job is a litle nuts.If I put any ice on it or anything like that I'll end up ruining the polish job.

Nick at ARE quoted me about 200 for a local guy. Nick is porting mine to put on my new engine and he is having it coated. I'll let you know when it comes back and we get a concrete price. I can't remember the name of the company that is doing it. PolyDyn in Houston is who GTP uses. They are supposed to be really good as well.
