IML: Exhaust Manifolds

[Bob Schmitt <bsbrbank@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all -

If you want to preserve an exhaust manifold (when off the engine), you can 
have it refinished with a hi-temp coating in "cast iron" or other color by 
places like Jet Hot.  I had Alfa manifolds done 10 years ago in silver 
(before cast iron was a choice) and they still look great.
