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 https://www.designengineering.com/heat-shroud-0-75-x-36/ https://www.designengineering.com/products/...leeving-tubing/ |

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. - Tony |

Pegasus Auto racing supplies in Wisconsin,
I use the Goodridge brand fire-sleeve with good results. Avail in several diameters. |

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.
