Bob -
I don't have direct heat measurements, but on my Atlantic before I jet hot
coated my manifold, I could feel the heat coming off the manifold every time
I opened the bonnet. Afterwards (using their extreme sterling coating) the
manifolds are almost the same temp as the rest of the motor and I no longer
"feel the heat" when I open the bonnet. The difference is striking. The
car runs MUCH cooler as well.
No more problems with boiling fuel in the carbs.
have a look:

It still looks the same, it does not stain.
