Buy the heat shield, the thermal wrap could possible crack the header.

I just unwrap my old DC 4-1 header over the weekend, I will post some pics shortly.........roughly 40k over 2 years, the header didn't show any cracks or rust as others have mention. (but, don't forget where I live, I think the region has something to do with it)
