I think I would still want ceramic for heat reduction
It would be good if we all went in on ceramic coating and had Stahl ship directly to one place that will also give us a discount.. I know when I did my shorties, it was very expensive (They coated inside and out). I can't imagine anyone will buy these and let them rust. I still need to decide on a size that would be best for my application. (Leaning towards 1.5).
You think Kormann would be OK giving some guidance to another guy buying factory direct?. I suspect they built my motor anyway.
that's where i am. did you look at the torque calcs / primary tube size for different engine displacements under the general discussion?Did we land on 1 3/8" for normal engines and low-end torque ?
Scott, PM is on the way. Thanks for handling this.

all korman rebuilds, except stock rebuilds come with a stahl header. email korman and ask if they rebuilt an engine (vin number). i'll give you a clue, they probably can't tell you. the cam that you have isn't a stock cam. so i wonder if they built the engine. you might also ask VAC motorsports if they did the work - they also paint their engines blue, but lighter blue. the cam may be the key. you also have 45 dcoes. korman would have used their intake manifold. if you have a hot cam and the 45's, you might be in need of the 1.5" headers.
When I bought the car, I phoned Korman to see if they might have built the engine, but they said they did not keep serial number records.
Now that you've seen the cam, could they ID yay/nay based on the various clues you have? blue block, dcoe45, alpina cam etc?
Either way, with your Alpina engine bits, you hit the jackpot
