I had mine done locally (MD.) and whatever he did is sticking. Just did a break-in run -up and had them pretty hot and they didn't even change color. I can take a photo of what they look like and hook you up with the guy. He's pretty reasonable but can't recall the price. Wasn't hateful but you'll have to ship them. Skip

Beadblast them and brush on some POR-15 manifold gray paint.

Here are some repro RA/HO manifolds after 5 years and 30K miles.

I'm using Quanta Products High temp cast blast paint (spray can) on my 55 chevy's exhaust manifolds and it's held up very well for 1200 miles so far. Looks like a new cast iron finish. Sorry I don't have a pic at the moment. I painted my 64 GTO manifolds with it too, but have not bolted them on the engine yet.
