No problems with the uncoated steel melting those hoses? The coating wouldn't be for looks, I just want them to last and its supposed to contain heat better.

even coated it's still very hot and would melt wires and burn your hand badly if you touched it while it's hot

but it does cool down ultra quick. in like 2 mins i could touch my header.

Can the factory heat shield be reinstalled afterward?

not really

you can wrap the header with heat resistant material but honestly how often do you touch the header? if there's wires nearby you tie them out of the way.
