POR 15 Cast iron grey. Can be brushed on or sprayed. I reduced it with paint reducer and sprayed them.

hands down the best!

POR-15 is a self leveling paint so brushing is not a problem either. It will not leave brush marks.

Will the 8oz can do a pair of small block exhaust manifolds?

No, I would get a pint. you want at least two good coats on them. And some extra incase you have to ever touch up the manifolds in the car. Also With the extra product left over put a layer of sawran wrap under the lid and container and close. This acts like a gasket which enables you to get the lid off for future use. You might not get the lid back off if you don't do this.
