here is another redneck idea i did.

most of the high temp paint calls for bakeing the part after painting.
i had a almost new set of headers that had surface rust on them from the cheap paint that burned off in a short while.

i blasted the headers.

had a old electric dryer in the scrap pile so i gutted it used the cabinet. i used the exhaust outlet for the inlet and some ducting hung a full sized painted header in it and used my turbo heater to bake them.
i had a heat deflecter(sheet metal) in it so the heater dissapated the heat and the flame didnt touch the header.
wow did it get hot.
it worked great and the high temp paint is lasting alot longer than the original crap paint i did 3 coats of high temp primer and 3 coats of paint baking after each coat.

suprizingly no smoke a lil' fumey but i did it in the driveway.

i have painted headers in the past without bakeing them and the paint didnt last long at all.

oh and my header wouldnt fit in my oven dont tell my
wife but i actually tried wouldve given me the perfect excuse to get rid of the electric stove and go with gas.

tell me i'm not a cheap azz
