Reply to "Heat causing caliper rub?"

My first thought was to check your MC push rod length. This is a standard problem with new MC installs in our Panteras. Just a little too tight, heat things up, and now you have partial push rod movement.

As for a heat shield, aluminum is a GREAT heat conductor. It will soon radiate off the back side whatever temp is hitting it on the front side.

Stainless is not a good heat conductor and would serve you much better.

Get a flat sheet of stainless sheet. Make it as wide as the space your 3 MC take and deep enough to extend out far enough from your MC fire wall section to cover the header pipes. Add a 1/2" 90 degree bend on the fire wall edge and attach it to the fire wall.
