Exhaust wrap...

[attila]

How many foot do I need to wrap the headers?

I should have got them coated while in US, there's no such a thing like that here, or is way too expensive.

so I'm gonna wrap em up.

Wow, good information.

Better than wrapping and a decent compromise for ceramic coating, they sell a spray-can product with a ceramic based high-heat paint (1200ºF) that works very good. I had it on my headers at one time and it made a hughe difference in reducing the heat under the hood. And it looks really nice.

You need to cure it if adding ceramic paint. I tried to do it without the heating, didn't work.

I believe I did (the second time) 275 degrees for 30 mins
-cool down
Then 350 for 30 mins
-cool down
Then 450 for 1 hour

Most of the cans don't specify the procedure other than to "cure".

Ferrari must coat there headers. They don't use any wrap that I have seen. Keep looking for a coater. Check with powder coater shop. They might do it.
