2.5" I.D. They are not coated, they are "mill finish" i.e. as the stainless comes from the supplier. I do not know if coating helps power, it does reduce heat radiance but stainless has less heat transfer than mild steel anyways.

Hoping to wrap up work here at Time Machines today so we can transport the car back to Jim's home shop for the minor details completion and eliminate his 3 hour round trip commute to our shop.
