    I have a decent pair I had to cut up and move some tubes on one side. Any powder coaters on here? Do these need to be stripped to have redone or can I get by with having them touched up in the bare areas?

    Or just for now get some ceramic high temp spray paint for headers and touch up what's not coated . I can't paint till the engine is back in and ready to run, the can says has to be heat cycled within 8 hours of application.

    Powder coating wont work, the temp is too low. If it's just touchup scratches, then get some high temp paint and spray it in a cup. Then just use a small brush to touchup the spots instead of spraying it all over other areas. Wait until you've done your engine breakin, and then do it, or the 20 min. breakin cycle will burn it all off anyway.
