Need help in finding replacement for exhaust manifold insulator/ heat shield
 
Hello everyone,

I just wanted to know what is a good replacement parts for 93 rx7 exhaust manifold insulator/ heat shield? My current ones are rusted out and can't be reused. I was thinking of using this Thermo-Tec Kevlar Heat Barrier from this site: http://www.jegs.com/i/Thermo-Tec/893/16850/10002/-1. If you guys have better suggestions for replacement parts. I'm wanted to hear you guys out. Thanks :scratch:

Used pieces are always an option.

They are stupid expensive.

Another option is to take the rusty ones and fab replacements out of stainless sheet metal.

What's "stupid expensive"? I have one, but might need another.

I don't recall exact prices, but I think the 3 pieces that surround the turbos would cost about $100 each.

Have you considered getting the exhaust manifold ceramic coated?
