No, the heat shield will not go back on. It will not be required any more. The stock engine cover is the closet part to the headers. It is on the car now and is doing fine. my partner has drove pretty hard a couple of times to get the headers hot just to see if it would damage the stock cover, but so far it is withstanding the initial heat given off after a spirited drive! ( ceramic coating benefit
)
We have designed another engine cover to open up the engine bay and show off the headers even more, plus we were not sure at the time if the stock cover would take the heat.
For those interested in something different, our engine covers will be available in different materials and finishes, ( Stainless, Aluminum, & carbon fiber )
you can see the prototype engine cover in the pictures of the headers at the top of this thread.
