try the search function here at the site, it is up on the right side of the page there are lots of threads on the pros and cons of header wrap.

Mine were pretty dinged up so I wrapped them. No idea if it'll rust out faster. Not sure I care as these are cheap and used.

Do search but the conversations tend to center on trip length and the tendency of short cycles of heat to cause condensation which the wrap holds in and then rusts.

Here's what I did if it's helpful
