Specially engineered to protect these electric components that are mounted in the hottest part of the engine bay, Lava Starter Shield is made using Heatshield Products patented and proven crushed volcanic rock fiber. This is an ideal thermal barrier when there is less than 1-inch of airspace between the starter and heat sources such as headers, and also works great when there is more airspace. Lava Starter Shield has a cool, carbon-fiber appearance, and it does not conduct electricity, unlike nearly all competitive thermal barriers. That means that you don't have to worry about an electrical short that could occur with exposed starter terminals coming in contact with the shield. Protecting the starter motor and solenoid from excessive heat will extend the life of these products, improve starter cranking performance when hot and reduce electrical amp draw while starting under hot conditions. Lava Starter Shield protects the starter from constant temperatures as high as 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit, and short-term temps as high as 2,000 degrees. Lava Starter Shield is easy to install and typically doesn't require starter removal. Using heat-resistant and durable hook and loop fasteners, Lava Starter Shield is wrapped securely around the starter and won't come off while subjected to engine and driving vibrations. This allows for easy removal, though, when necessary for engine servicing. Made in the USA, Lava Starter Shield is the best way to protect the starter motor and solenoid from damaging heat, preventing costly and inconvenient starter failures from ruining your day.

I had constant hot starter issues. Truck would barely roll over to start. Put this around my starter and never had another issue.

Hard starting when hot problem. Decided to try this before adding a remote solenoid. Test drove it and shut down several times. Full power on the starter each restart. Installation was easy on my lift. I think it would be hard to do from the top.

Much easier to put on than others I have tried and it feels more substantial. Unfortunately it did not make a noticeable difference for me.

Worthless. Overheats starter instead of protecting. I returned as fast as I could.
