New headers!

The headers finally arrived, they were painted by the builder to keep the rust at bay but I'm not sure what paint he used so I stripped it off and painted them with VHT 2000 degree paint. A couple of good coats then put them in the oven at 250 degrees for half an hour. After letting them cool, crank it up to 400 and heat for another 30 minutes. another cool down then go to 600 degrees for half an hour. Just make sure to do this on a day when the wife isn't home. Baked paint doesn't really smell appetizing unless you're a gearhead. They do look good though.
