You need "heat sleeves" not tape. The main thing is keep the wires, etc from touching the headers. Anything actually touching the headers will not last. So just making sure nothing is touching should do you ok.

You might consider sleeves in a couple areas though. And don't forget hoses, like heater,etc.

Sleeves can be expensive, so do a good analysis of just what and where you will need them.JMJO
