I got mine from a friends workshop, they have it on a big roll to use on cars and boats,
but if you search 'heat protection' on Summit racing you will find heaps of stuff there.

I need to fill in the hole of the air tube on the cat. I was thinking about some high heat epoxy. Think that would stay in there ?

Default the only

guess I may be the only one on here that used steel stack studs instead of the long oem manifold bolts and spacers for the alternator and a/c brackets. They look way better than the other ideas that I have seen. I also used one at the alternator,, then bent a offset in a piece of flat steel and went straight to the frame behind the drivers side A arm. It looks very clean and super sturdy.. Gggg.

Hi
I have Hedmans and like them a lot! No dipple to get them to fit, I saw in the pictures above that the wires where up and over the valve covers. I ran mine down and back to clean up the engine bay. Also my O2 sensed is in the driver side collector pointed inward . Might make the switch to a heated soon, but have had no issues of it not going into closed loop. 😄

The headers are all done and the car seems to run pretty good. How can I tell for sure the it's going into closed loop ?
