Default Thank you

I did consider removing the wrap and have the headers ceramic coated. I was in a rush to get these done so I thought easiest way would be to just heat wrap. I appreciate all your comments. I have heard both pros and cons on both ways. I have watched videos of stainless steel cracking and becoming brittle from years of usage and all while being heat wrapped. I have also heard ceramic coated headers offer little to no heat dissipation but I do believe the headers were not properly ceramic coated. So, I digress that perhaps the best way it to ceramic coat then heat wrap. I have decided to not go a rush or cheaper way by all of your comments. So, I shall remove the wrap and contact local automotive shops specializing in ceramic coating. Thank you
