i've been recently posting about some noise coming from my tirck-flos. Either it's a small header leak or lifters. Since i can't really tell which it is i've decided to go with header leak since it's cheaper to fix.
I also thought since i've got the headers diconnected i should wrap them with the heat wrap. Is the wrap an advantage or disadvantage? I have long tube headers and they get scorching under the floor board. That's one of the reasons i thought i'd do this. Any way! To wrap or not to wrap, That is the questions?
