[V8Vairs] Heat and Brake Lines

[Rick Norris]

I had a similar problem on my V8 Vair. I used some heat insulation from DEI 
to solve the problem. It may be I had no problem but I wanted to be sure. I 
used that material in sheet form elsewhere on the car such as the "trunk" 
(old engine compartment) floor above the mufflers.
