For those of you that have TR6's with the air injection rail on the exhaust 
manifold, how did you "restore" that portion of the exhaust system?  If I use 
the OEM 1976 exhaust manifold, It has the air injection ports tapped into each 
exhaust runner on the manifold with a threaded pipe fitting which then feeds a 
common pipe or rail.   All of this air injection system attached to the exhaust 
manifold is discolored and rusty looking from 30+ years of high heat 
conditions.  Would you ceramic coat all of it?  Or just media blast them the 
air injection components?   Obviously, removing the air injection system and 
plugging the tapped holes in the manifold is one solution, but at this point, I 
prefer to keep it OEM.   If I were not going OEM, I would ditch the OEM 
manifold for a header.
   
  thanks, Greg H
