How I can protect the brake master cylinder from the heat of the tubolar exhaust manifold?
Can anyone have picture?

Its called Heat Wrap, You use it on your exhaust manifold. Just wrap the entire maniold and it cuts down on engine bay temps ALOT!!

Your local parts store carries it.

As for your brake booster only, Never heard of anyone trying to prevent it from the heat.

Negative on the heat wrap. Just cut a sheet of aluminum and mount it between the bmc and the manifold.

heat shield, but i also have all my exhaust components treated with JetHot ceramic coating.

i do have stock mani but i wrapped it and still have the stock heatshield in place. i personally dont think this metal shield is clean looking. i was actually considering a stickon gold foil on the MC.

if u dont prefer wrapping, ceramic coating looks nicer
