How much exhaust heat wrap?

How many feet/meters + thickness i.e for both 1 inch and 2 inch will it take to cover your average 4-1 header in heat wrap?

Obviously im looking for a very near estimated figure, not exact as that would depend on a few things.

So were talking about 50 foots worth? I wouldn't be surprised as there are 4 long pipes to cover.

Re: How much exhaust heat wrap?

Im sure its something like 50ft you need, as you need to half wrap each turn, so you will need quite a bit to get the job done properly. Someone will be able to tell you for for definite, but Im sure its around that amount.

that withstands temps of up to 800c, the thermal stuff is up to 2000c... Quality is compromised.
