I just installed a set of eldelbrock headers and the paper work said if you rap them you will void the warranty. I dont know why.

I wrapped a set of headers on a race car to keep the heat in the pipes, not in the engine compartment.

The heat could cause the welds of the headers to fail, thus voiding your warranty.

I dont care about the warranty bought these used from Tomp. So is wrapping them a good or bad idea?
