Default master cylinder toooo hot

As the title says...my master is getting too much heat from the headers. Hot enough that I don't want to put my hand it!

Has anyone seen a "heat sock" type of product that I can wrap my MC in?

Thanks

I've never heard of insulating the MC...but many have wrapped the headers and had significant reduction of heat in the engine compartment...might be worth a try to put something between the MC and all the heat coming from below....Good Luck1

The DEI starter shield should fit around a MC.

Is it getting hot enough to cause a problem?
