Question on manifolds.
I am having a friend get my extra set of manifolds welded up and lightly ported. My question is on how significant the heat shields are on them? Is it impearitive that I make sure the are reinstalled or will I be ok with coating them and runing them like they are. I have looked around through the EM articles a have not found anyone stating that I have to reinstall them or _____ will happen. Thanks for any help in this area.

Ok cool Dbeast420 thanks for that info I may have to order that stuff. However I see that Willren coated over the shields. So my question still stands. If I use this coating will I be ok with leaving the shields off the manifolds?
