I just had my TTI headers re-ceramic coated by local company who makes and sells headers.

The issue is that the ceramic coating is falling off the upper tubes where they meet the heads.

You can just rub your hands across the tubes and it flakes off.

I paid extra to have them first shoot in silver and then in black as they required for dong the black finish.

I just called them and the owner said it's due to my carburetor being getting far to rich and running to hot.

I disagreed as #1 the header never did that with the factory coating and I just had it checked by the guy who tuned the carburetor last time and his meter showed it was not too rich running.


I told them this but they still insist the header tubes are getting too hot and it's not their problem.

So I think it is their fault somehow for maybe not putting the base coat of silver on first.

Anyone have an experiences with this sort of thing? Just wanted to see if their explanation is truthful?
