I did mine on my 1800E. I think as was said the head studs conduct heat to the manifold and it does not dissapate the heat I beleive. It looks good. The guy from www.performancecoatings.com explained it more like if you leave some thing in an oven it will go to the temp of the oven after long enough. I have an uncoated manifold but did not put on and to a side by side comparison of temp absorbsion/heat retension when under good cold ram air to see what the inside is like. It was done both inside and out. I did not have any throttle plate issues after the coating like I was afraid of. I did ceramic coat the header also. .
