Description


Protect your starter from exhaust and engine bay heat with this aluminum heat shield, designed to reduce heat soak and improve hot-start reliability. Built for full-size starter applications on Small Block and Big Block Chevy V8s (and compatible GM 90° V6 applications), the satin-finished aluminum shield mounts near the starter to deflect radiant heat from headers and exhaust components — especially valuable in tight engine bays or header-equipped builds where starter heat exposure is increased.
