All, We use MMC a lot at work for small parts and such. I often have purchased home use stuff from them. I was poring through the catalog, looking for some things for the engine conversion (yes, this is TIICo related).

I found: Helical Bundling Wrap Self-Extinguishing Black Nylon, 1/4" Nom OD, 25'Spool - to keep my wires nice and neat and reduce the number of cable ties. Kevlar/Aramid Fiberglass Sleeve Packing 5/8" ID, 1/16" Wall Thickness, 650 Deg F Max Temp - to go over the fuel lines and protect from heat and abrasion (will put these on the Thing, too) Ceramic Fiber Insulation Strip 2" X 50' X 1/32" Thk, 12 Lbs/cu ft Density, White - the same header wrap that Jegs will sell you for $35 is $13 here. I thought that some of you might be interested in this stuff, even if you don't have a big overhaul going on.
