My thinking is electrical conductivity or corrosian resistance.
That is correct...

I dropped off a few more pieces to get oxidized today.
-the bracket that holds the clutch line to the firewall
-the metal brake booster line and the clamp that bolts it to the firewall
-the box that the stock coils are mounted in (I've decided to move them back to the stock location).

You might just want to have all those piece ceramic coated so they match the other pieces that you had done. I made the mistake a few years ago of sending all my intake and exhaust pieces out to get ceramic coated, then I powdercoated all the other brackets etc etc myself. Two different blacks, I wasn't pleased. Now everything that I powdercoated, I need to re-powdercoat with a different black.... which is fine as alot of the powder coated got beat up. So hopefully I can match it all this time around with the exception of the HMIC frame and the heatshield for the fuel cell. Niether of those I can fit in my over.



I don't think there is a way as the heat will probably do some damage to the internals. RattlecanJohnny to the rescue for me for the WP. Housing I coated though
You're sending your stuff to Premier or you're just saying you're doing the same thing?

Well my engine is going to be black and gunmetal/dark grey, so if there are a few shades of black/grey I won't mind HAHA. They said if it was anodized it would come out a little lighter than black, but that's OK. I'm still thinking about just getting all the remaining stuff powdercoated though. So would powder coating damage the water pump too? Is that what you're saying?
