Hi everybody,
This weekend i've instaled equal length headers and met one significant problem - HEAT! It heats up so high! As it comes very close to radiator - it heats up as well. And what worries me most -header rounds oil filter and crank so tight as its supposed to boil oil up. And all this is done with asbestos cover. What to do? Im thinking of coming back to stock. Did anyone installed this? How did you avoid extra heat.

exhaust wrap like they use on rally car will do the job you are looking for.
used it on my downpipe, you can put your hand on it when the engine is hot!
