1)how many ft. should i get to do bbk longtubes? and possibly H pipe?

2)should i use 1in. or 2in.?

3)which type of wrap should i get(copper composite,ceramic

4)should i use a coating to spray the wrap if so how many cans? and what kind?

5)what brand should i get?

i am doing this to keep heat out of my engine bay, also to stop burning plug wires,and knuckles i would like to have this done within the week.

Some believe the wrap holds in moisture
and
can cause premature header failure

I have no experience with the stuff

Just passing on what I've seen on the various boards

if u already have ceramics then there is absolutely no need to wrap them. bad idea. the ceramic alone will lower the underhood temps.
