Guys look at the motor they have for display on Top Gear. It has aluminum heat shields on the headers. We need to find what car they put them on then snatch them from a salvage yard. Maybe a great way to reduce under hood temps. I went and looked on my parents Legend and Honda minivan...they both have manifold heat shields. Maybe Honda knows something? Like how a build a long lasting engine.
