Lightbulb Heat wrap or shielding a 10 valve manifold?

my inlet manifold gets very hot.. what with it being directly above the exhaust manifold.

I'd really like to try and shield it some how.

Has anyone had experience with using Heat wrap on a KV?

I did once try making a heat shield between the two manifolds out of some old aluminum I had laying around. It was a bit unsightly tho so i chucked it.

Is a lot of the heat soak coming off the exhaust? or is it being transfered direct from the actual head its self ?
