Looked into it, and decided to not do it because I was in a rush/poor.
Ironicly, no LT1 build is fast or cheap.

Looks up NIC industries air dry ceramic coatings. If you have a hvlp gun and compressor you can do it yourself. Get the satin black.
I plan to ceramic coat my hot parts but re-wrap them also.

i didn't think you were to wrap once it is ceramic coated? i heard it will cause it to flake off faster or something like that. i wrapped mine after the coating got baked off on the dyno and the wrap works better then the coating ever did

Nope. My srt has a coated and wrapped o2 housing. No flaking on it. It really depends on how good the coating is.

Cars that do the long haul on the power tour etc. So not garage queens that don't get miles put on em.
Its just like a paint job. Its only as good as the prep done to the substrate.'92 vert with 383 LT1 | 78mm turbonetics turbo, Tial 50mm BOV , Tial 44mm waste gate | Ported heads | Intake Drilled for MSD Pro Billet Distrib|Callies crank & rods | JE Pistons | T56 | spohon suspention.
