Larry,
Yes, I can do the silver, which gets polished to a very high gloss, a black
coating and two colors of grey in metallic ceramic coatings.
I will have some examples at the MG swap meet in Wheaton, IL at the end of
February, one a LCB in silver.
I can do powder coating of most any size and color part.
There are coatings (mostly thermal barrier and anti-friction) for internal
engine parts, but since I don't build engines, I haven't gotten into those.

Neil Anderson, don't you coat pipes, too? Do you have something similar to
Jet Hot? What other coatings do you do?
I'm going to need some coating on the headers for my MGB V8 conversion. The
pipes are called block huggers and are a real tight fit.

When I drove to Missouri I had bolted a small sheet of steel (3" x 48") to
the
top of my exhaust pipe and had very little heat at the floorboards. I just
used 3 muffler clamps and it held fine.
That and the coating would be a good combination.
