Hi Greg,
I'll add one more formula for you: Header wrap + daily driver = bad
idea. If you only drive a car with headers and header wrap occasionally
or to race it, you should be OK. I added the wrap to my 240Z daily
beater, as did some others in my Z Car club, and we fried all the welds
in the headers. So unless you want to sound like a Midas commercial,
best stay away from that situation as well. BTDT
Cheers,
Bill Barnett
