HOOKER COMPETION W/ HEATWRAP
ARE HOOKER COMPETITION HEADERS' 16 GUAGE THICKNESS ENOUGH TO HANDLE THERMAL WRAP?

From: milwaukee wisc,
its not good to wrap your headers because the wrap will insulate heat and cause the header to crack around the welds

Thanks. I got the cheapest headers for now just to get the car going. I'll buy ceramic coated later.
