 Brian,
That is really a " refer to the judging guidelines" question.
1.=C2=A0 My personal opinion is while the coating is preferable as it prote=

Just my .02..

Happy New Year everyone,
I'm purchasing a set of reproduction LAT 73 headers and want to have them t=
hermal coated.
Two questions.1. Will I get dinged at concours (stock class) for coating th=
e headers?2. If not, what color were the original LAT 73 headers?
I have to pony up the cash for the headers and coating soon, so timely feed=
back will be most appreciated.CheersB
