e heat shielding=0A =0AI agree Sven,=0Athere is also the problem of wear an
d tear of the wrapping. We used to find it =0Ashed fibres and dust into the
engine bay which is not very good. There's =0Aprobably too much low freque

a-List: Carb, fuel and oil tube heat shielding=0ABrian,=0A =0AI do not want
to recommend for or against exhaust wrapping, because I have no =0Aexperie
nce with it, but my quick comment is this:=0A =0AI would rather not reduce
the air cooling of the exhaust pipes. Have you seen =0Athe photo from Rota
x=C3=A2=82=AC=84=A2 engine test bed, at max take-off condition? =0AF
rightening, if you did not know that it is designed to take it: The exhaus
t =0Apipes are literally glowing red!=0A =0AAfter I saw this, I always thin
k about it at lift-off and reduce to climb =0Asetting as soon as it is safe
.=0A =0AMy personal view is therefore to reduce the radiation that hits the
carbs and =0Arubber hoses as much as possible, rather than trying to preve
nt the heat from =0Aescaping its source. Shielding the carbs and the hoses
has only positive =0Aeffects, and weighs very little.=0A =0ARegards=0ASvei
