Interesting but I looked at their site and they say nothing about heat or chemical resistance

I really like the port split aspect of the intake - should minimize cylinder robbing,
provided
you're still getting enough overall flow - although 48 CI shouldn't require much.
What CR are you at with this piston/head combination?

Well, I can't speak to the coating method - I sent my pistons out for a service to do it, and I hope what you've got works - but a 48" Austin 4 popper with a pair of HS 2s is right in my wheelhouse.
How are you gearing it, and what are you using for a transmission?
Will you be able to make Speedweek with it this year?
Good luck on this build!
