What to do with starter wires in LT install

I have these wires real close to the headers, what did you guys do with them? I relocated my ABS wire so its cool but the loom with the O2 wires and starter wires is in harms way can I just wrap them with Thermo Tec heat tape? That is what I used on my fuel lines.

I believe 10 gauge should work fine for the trigger wire, the large battery cable was long enough on mine.

I extended mine with some 8ga that I had laying around, and moved all the wires to route along the AC lines, then through the motor mount.
