That’s awesome!! You hydro dip them?? If mine ever have to come off the engines I’d definitely be interested in doing that. How many people have asked if they’re carbon?? Any pics installed?

I hated those headers but they did look pretty bad ass.

CMI 316 stainless Big tubes fail?

What is their weak link? Seawater stays in the tubes, eventually eroding them?

Do CMIs have replaceable zincs?

Hot salt water is not good on 316L. 304 is even worse, even at low temps.
