I am considering headers to replace the existing cast manifolds on the 350 in my Studebaker. Due to my narrowed Nova subframe I am thinking block hugger design as my best option. Also leaning toward ceramic coating versus chrome or paint finish.

I would appreciate comments on your experience with these. Any particular brands to go with or avoid? Quality of construction, appearance and fit are important to me even if I have to pay a little more. What is your experience with the ceramic coatings?

By the way my project to swap a big Cadillac in has been shelved due to tight cleances in my narrowed subframe.

Thanks for your help

Pat
