well being your friend can do this work that's a win for sure. otherwise Ceramic coating would be the ticket.
once they get good and hot they will change colors. I would recommend the best gaskets you can afford, I like Percy gaskets myself.
Ya I saw some reviews that said the supplied gaskets are junk. What should I be looking for in a gasket? What makes a header gasket a good quality gasket?
Well the Percy gaskets I have used in the past an a multi layer gasket they are thick and once you see them you will understand why they work so well. Are you planning to install these or have a shop do them? Good quality locking header bolts are a must as well. When I have installed headers on my Bronco I used a bolt 1" long due to the gasket thickness and the header flange thickness. This ensures plenty of bolt being threaded into the heads.
