the material on the S.S. clutch line from Z1 depicted here is not heat shield, its merely a coating meant to prevent fraying of the S.S. braiding that could occur from vibration under heavy stresses of the track. The heat shield wrapped around the OEM clutch line is to protect the sub-standard material from the heat damage of close proximity of the manifolds. It can't hurt to reinstall the OEM shielding.. it will help protect the line from heat and any roadway debris that might be kicked up off the front tires.
Great write up - just what I was looking for. I'm planning to upgrade my 40th.
Thanks
