- I have done both. We used header wrap on the headers of our GT-1 car and it had about 100 hours of track time on them and they were starting to disintegrate from the trapped heat. The wrap worked VE

- Hello Tigers, I noted a week or 3 ago that I was going to put Thermo-tec on my headers to keep the heat fron destroying my A arm bushings. Here is my report on Thermo-tec on a 351C Tiger: Had to remo

- Now, if you had wrapped the hard-drive with the Thermo-tec, you could have saved the data, as it would not be able to "leak" out. {8-> It is understandable that the engine must run hotter, as you ar

- Have been running Jet-Hot headers on my Tiger (Ford Motorsports GT-40 302) for 2 years. Had them coated inside and out. Still looks like new. Ran about $285 as I recall. Have had no problems, but no

- By using the header wrap to retain more heat in the exhaust it will allow the exhaust velocity to remain higher than when it is allowed to cool. Higher exhaust velocity means better cylinder scavengi
