I've got an SR20DET and I just put on a stock location mounted doc race exhaust manifold. The oil passage that runs from just behind the manifold up to the valve cover is extremely close to the manifold. I'm worried that a rubber hose even with heat tape may be too hot being that close to the manifold, it'll literally be pressed against it. Does anyone else run this manifold and how did you deal with this situation?
