Seb,
I don't feel any paint will hold up in that area of high heat. Maybe the only thing that would is having them ceramic coated of even flame sprayed with stainless.

Is there a way to prevent or stop rust in the manifold exhaust runners (connection between heads and exhaust manifold)?. When I did the engine I clean all the rust out, with a wire brush etc...then painted them back with high heat paint. The paint in the held ok in the upper parts (triangle and risers), but peeled off in the runner a couple of minutes after it got starter...
rust has return again and you can see some delamination around the SS allen head bolts (culprit?). There´s still plenty of material left in there. but i´d like to somehow stop the rust...no water leaks.
I will try some pictures of the actual condition next time i get to the boat.
