I'm going to replace my SB headers, and am debating whether to buy the $100 summits and get them coated by QC, or spend $280 on flowtechs that are already coated. my non coated (just painted with eastwood stainless steel paint) have surface rust, but have survived suprisingly good over the past 6 years (with 2 1/2 years of year round driving here in west MI. if I spend more than twice as much to get coated headers, I want them to last twice as long. one benefit to coating is I can weld in O2 bungs and put any clearance dings in I might need before coating.....
I had a set of already coated TTI's, they looked as nice as the QC headers, but the second i got some oil burnt on them, there was no way to get that off. If i burn a little oil on the qc header, most of the time it was able to come right out with metal polish. Just one difference i have found with the QC coatings finish as opposed to one of the larger header companies.
In God we trust, all others pay cash.
