I put these headers on this weekend and I think these are a little close to the A/C Charge lines, does it matter? ANd how can I fix this?

Sorry about the pics, crappy Polaroid 640x480 Res camera.





Just thought I would share my 3rd brake light, as least I think it looks cool

I'm not sure if it'll be a problem or not, but if you are concerned about it, get some of the exhaust insulation wrap for your headers. It should lower the heat tremendously.

just wrap sum aluminum foil round them and/or take a zip tie and pull the toward the radiator sum..

 

What they said... you could also wrap your headers with special insulation you can buy at performance stores... though I've heard they reduce the life of the headers for street driven cars.

 

naww. Isn't too close.

The stock rubber insulation on the lines are pretty high heat resistant.
I'm not saying that heat wrap shouldn't be considered, but at least there's nothing really to worry about.

 

As long as the lines aren't touching the header, you ought to be fine.
