    Exhaust Wrap Tips Welcomed

    You are asking for install tips, not pros and cons.....Now that you aquired the wrap to use, you have made your mind to use it. Ill tell you about my install. Use a full wrap to start the tube, then start the 1/2 overlap, secure end with a stainless pipe clamp. I found that if you start at...

    A little more oomph

    Thank you for the breakdown! I have had issues with fuel percolation. But have had less issue since running a small spacer and header wrap on my fuel line. Considering going electric fuel pump at some point.

    Is 9.7:1 compression on iron heads too much for 91 octane

    ...and eng bay air temp. Smoothing up the combustion chamber would have helped out a lot as well. Sealing off the heat crossover in the intake. opening up the headers instead of running them thru the 2 inch full lenght exhaust, i had at the time. Header Wrap headers. Just a little food for...

    Header Wrap By Starter

    ...cranks over great when cold, but kinda "chugs" the starter when fully warmed up. I'm going to wrap the header in the area near the starter.... The question, I've never used header wrap....how do I secure the end? Bis a$$ hose clamp or ???? Anything else I should know or consider? Thanks...

    Header Wrap, what do you like

    last time I wrapped my headers I used the summit brand wrap. then used the AKA "header paint" over it. It's last me a long time but after three eng removal they are damaged and is falling apart. I just order me a new converter, do the eng is coming out again and i might as well re wrap my...

    They are doing full header wrap. I just wanted to do the top from the flange down just past the first bend to protect the plug wires. Is what I want to do wrong?

    Burned plug wires.

    I have the same design tubes and used a section of heat wrap folded over 3 times between the wires and tube. Been like that for years without one burn through.

    Burned plug wires.

    On my small block I have those headers where that one tube goes right across the head. (See picture, its an older picture the only one i have right now showing that side) I have had a few plug wires burn threw lately mostly on cylinder 5 and one on 7. I had wrapped the header tube with the heat...

    before the axle turn downs

    Looks like mine ------mine may be a little higher in the back at the turn downs tho. I had a bunch of used header wrap , and wrapped the whole system------headers back.

    header wrap? pro's / con's

    I wrap them really tightly after soaking it in water hanging on a hook in my garage. Then I used near an entire can of silicone header wrap black spray paint. (i.e. I did it right)... again it's been almost two years and the next time I have them out I will repaint them... I would have liked to...

Dont remember the brand , but has been a good starter...

    That's nice! I should have thought about that, I already cut them to length though so I don't know if I will be able to do that? I only did 1 wrap around the header, so I may try to do a couple circles around it and see if that helps them stay attached better, or I can look for another type of...

    TTI 1 7/8 Headers hitting oil pan

    "Ok Trail, what would you do if this was your car?" I'm so glad you asked. I would pull that pan and mod it like this and then wrap that tube with header wrap all the way back past the pan. The heat produced under heavy throttle is going to cook the oil running down the inside of the pan.

    Header fitment rant, Doug's

    Header melted the shift cable.

    We learn something every day. Previous owner had installed a B&M floor shifter and hooker headers. I dont know how adjustable these cables are but I'm about to find out. The cable was left very long and actually came about an inch or two away from the exhaust so after my third outing with this...

    Need a fix for this:

    Looks fairly standard for a 440 in an a body with hooker fenderwells. There are lots running around like that with no issues. If it concerns you make a shield and / or wrap the header as suggested.

    Fiberglass dog house

    Speaking of doghouses.... the insulation on the doghouse of my daughters 79 Dodge C-Class motorhome caught fire on our way camping last week . Luckily we were close to home and I was able to McGiver it back together with header wrap and some sheet metal. Better than new now !

    Best 383 valve cover gaskets to stop all the leaking

    Yeah if the headers are close to the gasket then that will kill them quick. I had a car like that once so started using the Mopar motor home exhaust gaskets. The motor home exhaust gaskets have a built in heat shield that protects the valve cover gaskets. It doesn't totally solve the problem but...

    2019 summer race.... Jadaharabi vs 318willrun

    Decided I should wrap the top curves of the headers while the passenger side one is still out. I have never wrapped headers before all I want to cover is the top curve coming off of the head so that I won't be roasting plug wires and hands when changing plugs. Anybody got a picture of how they...

    Hot Fuel Lines

    One, thing that I can add to this is that the cool carb plate under the carb appears to be made of metal. Get you one of those 1/2" thick insulating gaskets for the carburetor between that plate and the manifold and it should help keep your fuel bowls cooler. Also, wrap your header in the area...
