In a little less technical point of view; leaning over my uncoated SLPs while the engine is up to operating temp and running, feels like leaning over hell. 
But when I used an IR temp gun, at idle I was seeing ~600° on the individual headers immediately off the cylinder head.

That was operating temp but just at idle. The temps went up right away when the rpms were brought up. I was looking for a bad cylinder so I wasn't concerned with the temps other than to see which one was off from the others.
