GySgtFrank will become famous soon enough
Good info. This has been my experience with header wraps as well. Headers rust away fast enough on their own if uncoated. Wrap them and they last maybe a quarter of the uncoated header lifespan. It's interesting that the same type of degradation can be seen with turbo bags. I would have thought the cast iron would have stood up to heat soaking better than that. Guess not, thanks for the heads up.
