Not horrible but lil closer than id like. So i made sure the two clips securing it to the frame were in and secure ... check. Then i started thinking of ideas. I have a small piece of angle metal 1 in by 1 in and i am.goin to drill a small hole in it and then bend the side with a small lip so the wiring harness can be held all the way against the wall. For the time being i found some reflective heat wrap with sticky back cut it into 5 strips and wrapped the loom all along the area of concern and then zip stripped them to keep them tight. This added rigidity to it as well and made it move over further. Like to hear thoughts on this thanks

If you have your headers Ceramic coated inside and out that is half the battle.
Zip ties might melt and the insulation can fall of you should use stainless wire bands or ties to secure your insulation.
In many cases we relocate wire harnesses up and away from exhaust components.
