Do you think I got my moneys worth on these ceramic coatings on my headers?

I decided after looking at it for a couple days that
"That ain't right"
So I email them and they responded immediately when asked if they were suppose to rust
They said
"<i>Absolutely not. Get them to us and we'll strip and recoat them for you.
</i>"

So now I need to find a BIG box to send to them.
I use to live a 45 minute drive away.
Now I am 2900 miles away

May I politely and respectfully suggest you purchase and install some high temperature sleeves for the spark plug wires. They appear to be ready to melt from contact with the header pipes.

Mildred my fine friend.
The reason they are there is that the dizzy is on the bench as I decide what to use as a cover for the now removed vac diaphragm.
That is not their ordinary position.Good catch though
