Hey fellas..

I was hoping you guiys could tell me what are the most important parts of the motor to heat wrap when going FI with the Greddy..?? I appreciate all your input!

Thanks in advance

Ken

 

Yea I would like to know too...Im doing the Greddy install right now, and I know the instructions say the most important part is wrapping the fuel lines

 

I've never installed a greddy kit, but I would just wrap everything possible if you think there is a possible heat issue. That is what I did on my TN kit, and I never had a problem.

Go overboard with the aluminum heat relfectant tape!!! I like the thermo-tec stuff the best.


Also, if you look on greddy's website, you can find the install instructions. In the instructions, they tell you wrap the starter, fuel line, and EVAC line. You don't want to melt those lines... I think they also tell you to wrap the main wiring harness that runs up the side of the tranny.

 

Thanks QuadCam, I appreciate your input!

 

Where do you use that stuff at?

EDIT.. I apologize if they are the same thing.. heat wrap and thermo tec.. I am so green to this.. I am trying to research as much as I can before this installation.. Doe sthe thermo tec go with the heat wrap.. I am going ot get some wrap from Sharif as soon as he gets back to me..

 

I buy from summit. I also tried the similar stuff from heatshieldproducts.com, but I like the Thermo-Tec ThermoShield Ultra better. This stuff is for rejecting or protecting things from heat.



Lasting heat protection.
Thermo-Shield Ultra aluminized adhesive-backed tape is great for wrapping the hoses and wires you don't want to remove. It can also be wrapped around odd-shaped components for lasting heat protection. Wrap it around a fuel line and say goodbye to vapor lock. It reflects radiant heat up to 2,000 degrees F, and is twice as thick as the original Thermo-Shield.

wrap all the cables for the o2 sensors and things liek that that would melt if they touch the piping... you wont wanna have a short/ground somewhere and then have to find out "where its coming from " from a melted cable.
