I GOT MY BBK HEADERS! but....

Ok so I got my BBK headers today and I'm very happy with them, but I take a look inside the headers and I see something that looks like surface rust in both of them....

Is this suppose to be there? Will the headers rust through?

If they're just aluminized and you didn't have them coated then they're going to rust anyway. If you paid for coating then they should be coated inside and out and there should be no rust anywhere.

They are also brand new right out the box. Look at the pics. It was also on the bubble wrap.

The link you posted never worked.

Steel begins to rust right away so it doesn't matter if they're brand new. If you didn't have them coated they're going to rust to **** in just a couple short years and you will be replacing them again.
