Hmmm, exhaust wrap might be a good idea. Thanks for the idea! Cooler temps, longer starter life, and better exhaust velocity. Me likey!

Careful with the wrap... it makes the pipe bigger. AKA, bolts are a tighter clearance, along with spacing. It also, in my case, rubbed against the shift linkage

Good point about the wrap; I might use a piece of aluminum as a heat shield for the starter and swap to a ministarter. No linkage to worry about though: manual trans.
