About how much header wrap should i need to do a aftermarket D series header? What lenth roll will do the top of my header? Will 25’ be enough? I want to wrap it in black to make it look a little better and keep the heat down. Who sells the cheapest wrap. What are the best straps to get to hold it on?

IIRC, it holds the heat in against the header and causes them to crack

Not to go too far off topic, but how much does the typical ceramic coatings go for?
