I am just about finished insulating and adding sound deadening to the engine compartment and I am staring at the headers being just a few inches from the plug wires and not far from the HEI and. Wondering should I wrap the headers or otherwise put a heat shield in between them and the ignition components. Just don't know what the long term effects are on exhaust system and headers. Has anybody had any good or bad experiences with this?
