I have coated flowtech headers and 90* MSD super conductor wires. I have yet to burn a wire. Some of them are pretty close but the ceramic coating on the headers plus the high temp silicon of the wires helps a lot. I have great access to my plugs but it does require me to get some of them from underneith. I bought one of those modified spark plug sockets and it made things sooooo much easier. I recomend anyone with headers should get one.
