I have my header wrapped and I can notice the temperature be significantly cooler... but I don't drive it in the rain or anything so I won't run into holding too much moister in it.

I don't see how it would hold any rain. If you're running it in the rain, you would think, even though I may be wrong, that the heat would evaporate all the water. When the car is still, it wouldn't get wet unless it flooded out.

Some form of precipitation that could lead to dampness. Where does the moisture come from then?

Hahaha, Well point is, I purchased the header from you Excalibur, I love everything about it, I do see some of the wrapping starting to fall apart, but the wrapping itself was great when I received it. Haven't had any complaints other than it rubbing on the frame a little, but motor mounts fixed that issue.

Glad to hear. If I were doing it all over again, I would have tried the titanium wrap.
