[Healeys] Jet-coating, wrap or do nothing to stainless headers?

[Oudesluys]

Mirror polish them and leave them alone. Wrapping may lead to burning 
the metal away, coating possibly a similar story. By polishing you 
reduce the radiation of heat so the carbs should remain relatively cool. 
Anyway Webers/DellOrto's do not have the tendency to boil fuel. Also a 
car with an electric fuel pump does not normally have problems with fuel 
vapour lock.
