Header install, wrap Clutch hydraulics due to heat?
Before I get started on this what kind of material does everyone use to wrap that plastic hydraulic line going to the slave? Looks to me like it would get hot next to the headers and cause issues. Is there a form of header wrap that has a sticky side like tape that I could wrap this thing with? Thanks

I made a heat sleeve from a welding blanket. I just took it to a sew shop and had them make a long sock. Put it on my master cyl, line with some zip ties and it works great!

I'm not wrapping my headers, I'm wrapping my clutch hydraulic line to keep it from heat soaking close to the header. I've heard of issues when it gets hot so I'm trying to decide what to use to remedy this issue.
