you're prolly gonna wanna put some kind of thermal barrier on the hot side, maybe foil-backed insulation or header wrap tape? Looks good though. FWIW, lots of guys on here have done DIY heat shields. I've had an intake sitting in my closet for over a year, just too lazy to install it and fab up a heat shield lol
