Thread: Exhaust Heat

Tweet

It makes the most sense to start at the heat source (the muffler) and insulate it. Header wrap tape would be my choice. I've used it in a couple of places where an exhaust pipe comes too close to the starter or power brake diaphragm. If more insulation is needed, insulate the floor, right above the muffler.

Personally I'd opt for a heat shield before I tried insulation on the mufflers, but that's just me....
