Fabspeed Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingray / E-Ray Header Blankets (2020+)

Protect your C8 Corvette engine bay from the extreme heat generated by aftermarket headers with Fabspeed’s Military-Spec Header Blankets.

The factory C8 headers use heat shielding to protect nearby components. Many aftermarket headers eliminate this protection, leaving fuel lines, electronics, plastics, and other heat-sensitive components exposed to increased radiant heat.

Extreme Heat Protection

These header blankets are capable of withstanding temperatures up to 2,200°F.

They provide a dedicated thermal barrier around the headers to help control radiant heat throughout the engine bay.

Unlike traditional header wrap, the blankets are designed to avoid trapping moisture while providing greater heat control than ceramic coating alone.

Military-Spec Construction

Built using:

• 321 stainless steel netting
• Ceramic fiber insulation
• Kevlar jackets
• 321 stainless steel springs

This heavy-duty construction is designed for the extreme temperatures found around high-performance exhaust systems.

Key Features

• Withstands up to 2,200°F
• Helps significantly reduce radiant header heat
• Protects sensitive electronics
• Helps protect fuel lines
• Helps protect surrounding plastics
• Military-spec construction
• Does not trap moisture like header wrap
• Designed for Fabspeed Sport Headers
• Compatible with many aftermarket headers
• Simple bolt-on installation
• Installation hardware included

Header Compatibility

Designed for Fabspeed Sport Headers and should also fit many aftermarket header systems that retain OEM-position catalytic converters.

Important Installation Note

The blankets may smoke during the first few miles after installation.

This is normal and should subside after approximately 2–3 heat cycles as the blankets break in.

Warranty

Backed by the Fabspeed Lifetime Warranty.

Why You Need This

The C8’s mid-engine layout places several heat-sensitive components extremely close to the exhaust headers.

GM equips the factory headers with heat shielding for this reason.

When aftermarket headers are installed without adequate shielding, fuel lines, electronics, plastics, and surrounding components can experience substantially more radiant heat and repeated heat cycling.

These blankets surround the headers with a thermal barrier capable of handling temperatures up to 2,200°F, helping keep that heat contained instead of allowing it to radiate throughout the engine bay.

If you're installing aftermarket headers on your C8, proper heat management is an important upgrade for protecting the components surrounding them.
