I'd find a good coatings shop to ceramic coat them b4 installation.

Had mine drop shipped straight to a coatings shop in Orlando who did a fantastic job coating them inside and out...

The pacesetter long tubes cost $293 off summit racing and you can get them already ceramic coated for more $. They also sell the y-pipe but you have to look for it.

Long tube headers when size properly for the motor will make better torque and hp everywhere in the power band. The only reason they make short tubes is fitment and ease of install issues. 1.5" primaries and 1.625" primaries are the best size for 318's and 360's respectively. Unfortuantly the pacesetters are 1 3/4 which is more suited for a 408 stroker or really hot 360. This is all just the theory behind it though.

I would like to hear honest results from the long tube installs to see if any low end torque is lost from the exhaust gases not scavenging well in those 1.75" primary long tubes. Dyno results would be even better.

Yes, that paint will probably burn off in a day!

long tubes scavenge the exhaust gases better along with a better power band, also the long tubes are better if any sort of boost is in your future or higher rpm driving. Shorties to create a few more hp over long tubes but later fall flat in the power band. Read all this in a mopar magazine
