Question AMS...Which company do you use for coating the exhaust manifold?
pm me for info. I need to get my mani coated? I would like to send it but don't know where's a good shop? price?

I like the coats in your 42R TS manifold!

My friend had it on his manifold of his AMS 42R for over 2 years and still shinny and not chipped off.

Honestly your friend is lucky. All the coatings we have used including swaintech have chipped off.

We did in the past use (on your friends manifold) a place called classic coatings in michigan.

I think it was like $250.00, and this is like I said, after about 30,000 miles in Florida, so it gets rained on ect...
