Careful with header wrap on your headers. The M96 is somewhat prone to oil leaks via the spark plugs tubes, cam covers, and a variety of other spots and they can/would drip right onto the headers potentially. Another potential issue if you have the stock power steering system in the car, is the overflow dumps PS fluid right on top of the engine, which can also drip down and land right on your wrapped headers. I had a minor fire that fried an O2 sensor from the above. If you are trying to protect your PS lines from heat, you are better off wrapping your PS line and O2 sensors wires and leaving your headers alone. Not a chance would I risk wrapping my headers. YMMV
