Just the combustion chambers and the piston faces with thermal barrier 
coating.    No instrumentation 
on this car to see if there is a marked difference in head temps, but I 
will see how the general feel is.  This was an unintentional car that I 
ended up buying.  These heads were originally destined for my other four 
door, until I decided to use 140's for it.  Its heads will get the same 
treatment.
