    Heat Shield for Brake Lines

    What is the consensus on wrapping the brake lines where they run near exhaust? Should this be a concern?

    Thanks

    I used the aluminized Velcro stuff. Forget which brand.. Taped the ends good and clamped it. I would prefer the sleeves and spray sealer to help keep moisture out, but I wasn't in the correct sequence at the time and I change my exhaust routing after I installed the brake lines. Used it on Fuel lines also. I think it helps spread the delta T out a little.

    I used the same as Erlihemi on the braided stainless fuel lines (supply and return) with the stainless steel tie straps but didn't wrap the brake line as I have a little more clearance on the driver side.
