I used to use these with muscle car engines in the past and they work really well.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Has anyone ever tried using "header wraps", or something of the sort to contain heat? I used to use these with muscle car engines in the past and they work really well. Has anybody toyed with this on their P-cars? I am going to be installing some new headers soon and was thinking of ways to cut down heat in the engine compartment area.

POST 2 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Not one person has experimented with header wraps on areas of the exhaust to control heat better? I thought of it as an option and can't imagine why it wouldn't be a good idea. I'd rather ask around, first, obviously.

POST 3Original post

There isn't a problem with the heat in the engine compartment to begin with. Even at idle in 100 degree temps, the compartment only heats up to around 140 - 150 degrees. As soon as you get rolling, she dops back down to below 110. I don't see any benefit gained in spending time designing something that isn't necessary.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My concern was switching to the different headers. But if heat is not going to be a problem, then all the better. Thanks for your input.
