    Exhaust wrap

     



    I'm planning on wrapping my exhaust pipes where the run the cab of my 40 Ford p/u to help cut down the heat. I see lots of claims and types of wrap on the net. Who knows what to believe.
    Who's has used it and whats your results with the brand you used ? Please.
    thanks for your inputs.

    I used the 2" wide black fiberglass wrap from Speedway and it worked fine. I put it in several places, like near the starter and near the brake booster.

    The DEI titanium wrap is supposed to be better and doesn't cost much more.

    I've used thermotec two inch wrap to great success. I've painted it with high temp rattle can, also to favorable result.

    On lower exhaust it doesn't hold up as well, it receives damage from road debris, I suppose.

    Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

    I used the DEI lava titanium wrap, I also used it in places where it got close to the cab or starter or whatever, seems like it works very well, I diregarded the stainless tie wraps and used stainless hose clamps
