Tony:

My 427 gets too hot in the summer. I think the main contributing factor is the headers. I wrapped them and that helped a lot but now it seems to have worn off a little. Plus, I read in another thread that wrapping the headers causes them to rust out faster. So, my main project for the summer is to improve the drivabilty of the car by getting the overheating thing under control. If I can't find the style header and sidepipe I'm looking for, I'll just ceramic coat the ones I have and use the band Karl suggested. Then next, if needed, I'll go with the big aluminum radiator.
