I am wanting to have the 2.0L heads on my turbo motor coated with a thermal barrier. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to have this done and how much it should/will cost? Better yet, does anyone have a shop that does this?

Britain,
Try calling a company called PolyDyn performance coatings.They are out in Houston I think.Web site is www.polydyn.com
I used them back in the early '90s while doing some weekend mini-stock racing.They did many internal engine parts for me,of various types.An example on a piston.Thermal barrier on top,wear coating on skirts,and a teflon coating underneath the piston only came to about $10.00 per piston.We also did an oil absorbant coating on all the rod&main brg's.You'll have to adjust for proper clearances or you'll sieze a crank like we did the first time we toyed with coatings.Once we sorted that issue out and started over,I will say our engine did run 5-10 degrees cooler with the coatings while we raced it.
They'll send you free info.
