What did you pay to Jet-Hot your TES? They just said $299 on the phone...way $$$$!!!

I just called them, 'cause they didn't answer my e-mail for a week and a half...how much is jet-hot coating Edelbrock TES headers for 305 TBI, (#6875)? I figure I'll go with the sterling finish...I though it was more like $200...did I get a junky price just because I called or what? That puts headers at like $630 without shipping!! That's a TON!! What's going on?

'89 RS LO3- 140,000 miles
14x3 K&N Open Element
Ram Heavy Duty clutch (yes, I think it's great)
Dual .50 caliber machine guns just under ground effects

Coming very soon:
Edelbrock TES (Jet-hot coated)
Catco cat
Edelbrock 3" Cat-back
KYB shocks
Edelbrock Strut Tower Brace
South Side Machine subframe connectors

When your buddy reaches for a 10-pound sledge and says "I think we're gonna have to modify the floor pan, okay?" the answer is NO.

They want to much dont they. I am getting headers for my zz430 with the fastburn heads. Jim Pace sells the headers made by headman. The cost was 168 plain and 368 coated. Thats 200 bucks for the the ceramic coating. So I call Jet hot to get a price on coating, thinking I could buy the plain headers and have them sent to jet Hot to be coated. Jet Hot wanted 279 for the pair just to coat. Seems a little to much for me so Ill just get the coated headers that Jim pace sells for 368

I got my Hooker shorties for about $130 from Summit. I then took them to Performance Coatings in Jonesboro, Georgia(about 30 mins from where I live in Atlanta). They coated them inside/out for $120. So total cost was less then $300 for the coated shorty headers plus $100 for a custom y-pipe.

For anyone contemplating having someone else coat their headers/exhaust: you need to check out this site - <a href="http://www.techlinecoatings.com/">Techline Coatings</a>

I had my TES headers ($289.00) Jet-Hot coated ($213.00) Y-pipe included $15.00 for shipping and handling. Pretty expensive but I'd been saving for 6 months for it. I guess for the price, I could have just gotten the Stainless Steel SLP's. I had mine done just last spring. Check em' out.

Almost 2 years ago, had mine coated inside and out by HPC, and had both headers, both pipes to the cats, the two donut flanges (6 pieces total) and it cost $224 with a lifetime warranty on coating.

My TES Headers (313.00) and I got mine coated at Universal Coating (including the Y-Pipe) for $250.00 They did an awesome job. So I would try giving Universal Coating a call instead.

Here is what my TES's look like after they ceramic-coated them.
