I will. In your photo I see your headers are wrapped. Notice any difference in heat or anything else?

Not yet, just rebuilt and in the process of breaking in the cam. Those are the block hugger style headers, as I replaced the old long tube headers, because of the huge amount of heat they generated and their proximity to the steering box. The steering column plate on the firewall would get to 145 degrees and the floor was always very hot. I tried everything. This is the cure hopefully. They are wrapped with DEI's Titanium Exhaust Wrap. I'll report in a thread on the General C3 Forum, the results.
