I use their hook/loop heat screen for protecting cables and electrical wiring around the Tangerine exhaust on the race car. Wrap it around the cables/wires and use a tad bit of safety wire to secure it in place. - GA

I've just put the engine back in the car, trying a length of this stuff:

specifically the 1" material which allows the speedo cable termination to slide through easily.

Your header will come with a reflective sleeve for the cables.

As much as I liked the Firesleeve's insulating properties, I didn't particularly like sliding it on and off the cables. Maybe better on a street car than on a race car.
