Is there any reason NOT to put heat wrap on all the wires/wire looms that are anywhere near the headers? I’m going to zip tie everything that needs to be, but I figure this is extra insurance.

I was going to use Cool-Tape (metallic stuff) or something like it. Any opinions?

Not sure. Some of it is adhesive, so probably not.

I just heat wraped my headers and i was done with it on mine… But i did my headers while they where off. It keeps it so much cooler under the hood.

I decided just to wrap a few things that are close, like the O2 sensor and a few wire looms. $18 is cheap insurance.

I meant the O2 wire. The headers moved it back further so the connector won’t clip to the block where it’s supposed to, which moves the wire closer to the header. But at least I didn’t have to buy an extension.

How did you manage not getting the extentions. . On my 94 I have to buy extentions. The drivers side works but to tight on the wires and the pass. side there is no way… :dunno:
