Touche...
That got me thinking, so I priced out what it would cost to get piston, cylinder heads, and cylinders coated.
I couldn't find cylinders, but for everything else:
pistons = 4 x $24.50
4 cylinder inline head = $200.00
========================
Total: ~$298.00
I'd assume cylinder walls would cost $100-150 as they are less complex then cylinder heads, but more surface area then piston domes.
So total: ~$398.00-448.00...
Not cheap...and it requires the engine to be rebuilt, but it's worth it for that 0.5% MPG gain...right?
