Ive used the coating that hooker uses could be HPC and they only lasted around 3yrs,
I also would recommend getting them from jethot.

I have painted headers on my 79 looks ok, but I was thinking about getting the factory ram horns on my 66 coated w/jethot. Can them do that.

Purchase the headers and test fit/tweak and

then have Jet-Hot coated. I have the SB with Hedman sidepipe hedders, had to dimple to allow clearance at the idler arm grease fitting and clearance the collector flange on the driver's side. This way cost about 50-75 dollars more but you get the fitment done beforehand.
