Do any of you guys do this? I am trying to do a little research on it but I'm not finding much.

From what I have read about it, it seems to me that if you coated your chambers and didn't have the tops of your pistons coated that it could possibly burn a hole in a piston faster.

If anyone is knows their **** about this stuff please chime in.

 

i personally wouldn't bother if you don't have the piston tops coated.

how much of a shot are you running? fuel?

 

400 total 114 and sometimes 116 race gas

I was thinking about doing the piston tops and skirts and possibly the chambers.

The threads that I found on this subject are really old so I didn't know if things had changed. From what I have read people are saying that coating the chambers prevents the head from dissipating the heat and it causes more sensitivity to detonation/pre ignition

 

wow thats alot.

well i'm not experienced with coating CC's so im not going to blow smoke up your ***. but we have built a few engines that we coated the pistons, and that **** works. when we took them out of the oven, we took the surface temp with an inferred and the coated parts were INSTANTLY 70* cooler. we've also taken heads off and the coating still looked like new.

 

Anyone else?

Do all tops for heat, do skirts for friction. Never did chambers. Big power, big shot.

check with Pat (linx here on the board)...non ls motor but he's got it all coated...shooting for 1k hp..with a v6...crazy bastages...lol

 

Baked there is a guy in flatwoods ky named pappa franz he could hook you up with some coating.

my self i thing it is a good idea
