Greetings ! Completed my truck after 17 months. The original 350 with new cam & lifters and Hooker ceramic headers. However....the Headers are very close to the starter/solenoid and overheat after a short trip. I have to wait for it to cool down to re start. I got the Headers from JEGS. They said a starter wrap would fix it. I bought one from them and wrapped starter/solenoid and it did not work. I don't want to remove the headers ! What do other guys do to solve this ? Please and thanks for any experienced advice !
