## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this have direct contact with the header? Had to dent the header to get the mini starter in but now need to protect it.**
A: It can have direct contact, but depending on the temperature that the header gets to may cause the material to deteriorate quicker.  The aluminized layer can peel if exposed to over 700 degrees Fahrenheit direct heat. I would highly suggest double layering (if possible) it if it will be making direct contact.

**Q: Does the starter have to be removed?**
A: I'd guess it depends on the car.  I didn't have to remove it for my 63 chevy truck with a small block 350.

**Q: what are the dimensions in inches?**
A: I don't know the dimensions, but I installed mine on a full size starter on a 350 Cu In Chevy truck motor.

**Q: does it come with the metal tie straps ?**
A: Yes but recommend buying metal zip ties
