Jim;

I'd recommend sending them to Jet-Hot in Pascagoula, MS. Ask for their Sterling
ceramic coating. The headers come back looking chrome plated and the heat
emanating from them is greatly reduced. Corrosion down the road is also much 
less
likely to occur, if your headers are now in good shape now. NFI, of course.
