Do these things work?

[pbureau@attbi.com (ATS - Patrick Bureau)]

well just to defend the creator of such an item, and if I quote your
information and the information I took from their web site  they quote "The
grade we use, G10/FR4, has a thermal conductivity of .37 W/m*K." and G10
according to your web site would suffice to endure the heat of the engine
block.

eh! Ill tell you how it works or not... I bought it :)

=>I really doubt you would see too much effect on a g60 or a Vw where the
=>intake manifold sits right over top of the exhaust manifold.  Worse than
=>that, the high grade phenolics wich are much more expensive can
=>only handle
=>temperatures around 425 degrees before they start to delaminate.
=>This is a
=>standard cloth epoxy phenolic, the higher grades are green in color, G-5,
=>G-7 and such,  so I would not feel comfortable placing it above my exhaust
=>manifold.  Headers are known to reach 1600 degrees so I'm sure you can see
=>my point.

=>Her is a link showing the properties of some phenolics.

=>It might work OK on a crossflow head.
