Any New SRT Headers in development?

[Vipermann]

It seems to me like the only current SRT header options are B&B and Belanger.

I really want something Stainless (304 or 409) and coated. I hear the B&[******] have to be installed, welded for fit, and then taken out before they be sent out to be coated ... no @#!*$ way am I signing up for that PIA.

Any other options? ...

Why do you insist on stainless. there is a reason why Belanger uses what they do, call Lou Belanger and he will explain. There are cars from the early 1900's with cast iron exhaust manifolds that are still orginal. If the stainless was better they would use it. It's not like the material is that much more expensive. Belanger's have a great reputation their product will perform as they tell you. Call JonB at www.partsrack.com he'll hook you up

The stock SRT manifold/header is stainless ... Dodge must have had a reason for going that way ... a cast iron manifold lasting forever is one thing, but a much thinner, 16-gauge mild steel header is another ...

I've had 409 stainless headers that were coated ... that would be my preference ... 409 is not as 'rust-proof' as 304, but at least it won't immediately rust with the first crack or chip like the Belanger's will ...
