[alfa] powder coating for header

["David Lee" <pdlee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, this is my first attempt to write a question/comment to the digest.
Please bear with me if I goof.

I recently acquired a '72 spider header that I intend to install in my 86
Veloce Spider to improve power and torque.  To spiff it up, I wanted to
powder-coat or somehow paint the cast iron OEM header to prevent rust and
oily surface.  I was told there is no paint that can withstand the heat
(what is the max temperature at the hearder?).  Does anyone out there in
Alfa-land have any experience with substituting 70's header for 80's spiders
and any experience in painting the header?

Thanks.
David
