Default Anybody wrap the exhaust headers?

Got a Southern built 427 in my older Kirkham. As big a radiator as you can fit, biggest "sucker" fan possible and my ignition is spot on. The car was never really meant to idle in the Houston, Texas heat, but sometimes, it must.

Would wrapping the exhaust headers help to reduce the heat in the engine compartment?
Look ugly? thanx. steve
