I would caution the use of header wrap. I tried this a few years ago,

at the discouragement of PPC, and sure enough, after a couple of

years use, I blew part of my header out close to the head. After removing

the headers, and unwrapping them, I found numerous spots where

the header had crystalized. It did, however, reduce the amount of heat

in the engine bay.

The new coatings on headers work just as well, however they are more

expensive.
