Thanks again for your feedback. [emoji16] After reading quite a bit about that, seemed more necessary. If you’re saying it’s not going to cut down much on heat, then I won’t sweat it. The Taylor wires should be here tomorrow. Still need to order heat socks.
It will cut down on heat, not sure how much though. I personally didn’t feel like it would eliminate the need for heat shields from my experience and would not look as good as the stainless so I opted to spend more money on nice headers instead of on coating.

Yeah, I like the look stainless gets from the heat anyway. [emoji16][emoji106]. Thanks again ! Now I have to save up some more dough.

Those are badass headers and I guarantee they will fit without any problems. The ones for my Denali are precision in the way they fit around everything and were easy to install.
That’s what I like to hear. [emoji16]

Got my wires and plugs.. heat socks ordered. That’s it for the cheap stuff, now I’ve gotta save a bit for those AR headers, and some stage 8 bolts. I’m guessing the AR headers should come with decent (felpro?) gaskets.. As far as correct parts, do I just order the correct gaskets & bolts for my year, etc..? 17348f41c9dd228fa99baab08d6e2b23.jpg

The headers will come with gaskets, and I highly recommend ARP header bolts. They’ll never break. ARP 134-1102 Header Bolt Kit https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00E5YSH70/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_KT2TCbVVB0624
