Do these headers come with a thermal coating?

It's an option when you buy them normally

^^^ not that I was made aware of when I purchased mine, they are stainless Steel however, so I would think that if you wanted a thermal coating, you would have to wrap them.

You could send them to Jet Hot, or other comparable companies, and have them coated.

Talking
Since the company the OP posted doesnt list them anymore for Fbodies. I found the next cheapeast place at 390.80 shipped to the house & ordered mine today. The company is ERZ Performance That still beats most coated or painted headers.

A quick google search shows that ERZ Performance and Racing Part Depot are the only places that sell them. But from an earlier post, ERZ is sold out
