Brian,
I would question whether your authentic LAT headers are really authentic.
The original LAT headers, as you can see in the brochure picture, connected
the stock exhaust system via a tight right-angle fitting into the
collectors.=C2=A0 For track use you would remove the block-off plate from t=
he
end of the collector.=C2=A0 For street use the block off plate would stay o=
n and
the exhaust would have to go around the tight right-angle bend.=C2=A0 That =
setup
was good for the track but really lousy for the street.=C2=A0 I suspect tha=
t
your "authentic" headers don't incorporate the right-angle feature and
therefore would fail any authenticity test with flying colors.=C2=A0 As to =
the
color and finish on the LAT headers, I had LAT headers on my car for some
time and it's my recollection that they were satin black.=C2=A0 The origina=
l
color doesn't matter much, though, because the paint burnt off in no time.

Subject: Re: [Tigers] LAT 73 Header Thermal Coating
All,Thanks for all the great input regarding thermal coating and colors.
Another option I'm exploring is installing LAT 27 Tri-Y headers instead.The=
y were originally painted black and silver to distinguish which side to ins=
tall.Does anyone know how to distinguish them without the paint?How about t=
he down pipes; does anyone have a source or a jig?
The recent articles in the CAT Tiger Tales and TEAE newsletters discussing =
Port of Entry has a British American Imports sticker for B9471362 that list=
s eight LAT additions that were installed by Import Autos, Inc. of Jackson,=
MI.
The Suggested Retail Price included only factory installed options and deli=
very/handling.?
The Adjusted Total included all options, including LAT.

=C2=A0 If you don't allow (taking off points) LAT headers in concours, then=
all LAT options shouldn't be allowed, aluminum valve covers, oil pans, whe=

That is really a " refer to the judging guidelines" question.
