High heat with oil and other such fun, like for wiring on the motor, calls for more care and attention to what you chose. I usually keep a few roles of fleece tape on hand for random projects under the dash and inside the car (stereo work, etc.) and have had good luck with it anywhere not right on or immediately next to the motor. That said, more heat protection for the wiring in the engine compartment is never a bad idea. Of course then you want to make sure you are using wire with the right type of insulation as well... <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> There are a million different options for properly securing and protecting a wiring harness for different situations, and cheap parts store wire insulation won't hold up to high heat and engine comparment oil and other nastyniess like higher quality stuff will. Like any other type of specialized work, the deeper you go, the more variables and choices there are to consider. It's not unlike selecting a cam for the first time...</blockquote>
