    Hey guys, the top swap is closer than ever. Heads are about to be completed with all new parts and a P&P job. I'm trying to do as much work as I can before I put it all together. I'm thinking about ceramic coating my heads , LIM, outside of the intercooler core and the supercharger. Am I crazy, stupid, wasting time, or helping over all?

    Cost is minimal as I have access to the method and material myself. I'm more concerned with function than anything.

    Please give me your thoughts. The good, the bad, and the ugly!

    TIA,
    Slim

    Can't see ceramic coating on those parts helping anything...

    It is used on headers to RETAIN heat, not what you want on a S/C engine, lol. Just my $.02...
