WreckItRoth is on a distinguished road
I was gonna buy basic header wrap from autozone but when i pulled everything apart i started thinking about all the bends and shit so i got a 50 foot role of 1" black fiberglass header wrap. It's meant for motorcycles i think but it did the job. It was easy to apply but i barely had enough. i should have got a longer role. The over heating problem wasnt ever bad but if i was stuck in traffic for long it would make it rise. The hottest it ever got was the the third bar on the guage (dont know actual temp) that was when it was 100 degrees out and i was driving to some concert. I know its colder now but it hasn't been an issue since the wrap. I used Mr. Gasket to make my own but im gonna try a different material wednesday. I might also try to fabricate some sort of sleeve i can bolt around the edges. It always blows out in the same areas it seems. Its a real pain but it does seem to make a significant difference
