just checking, but when you guys installed your header did the paint start smoking and burning off? Mine did so im gonna wait till it all burns off and take the thing off and wrap it with a header wrap and spray the wrap with sealant.
i would paint your headers with some por high heat paint instead of wrapping it.
the ones with black paint always do that. look into getting it coated with jethot. kinda expensive but looks nice and stays really cool, you can touch the header 5 minutes after you run the engine and it wont burn you.
barebeque paint will work too.
I had mine powder coated with high temp powder.
