I'm looking into getting a header and want to use the TRD heat shield with it. Did some searching and came up with this:https://www.scionlife.com/forums/sho...15&postcount=4
Has anybody done this? My main concern is getting a header with piping that fits under the shield and possibly has the same O2 bung location. I work at a metal shop so I have full access to welders and custom fabricating mounting tabs for the shield to attach to.

 

anything can be done, especially if you have access to those kinds of resources. if it becomes too much of a problem, just heat wrap it.

 

Trying to get something with least amount of modification. At the very least I need the runners to fit inside the shield, the O2 bung can be plugged and relocated. I've made drawing file where I can compare photos over the stock header, but that never works 100%.

 

I finally got around to doing this. This is just a mock-up, but everything fits. I taped weld tabs to the header so that I can bring it in to work to tack them in place. Also, I had to "modify" the shield by pulling some of the curve out near the alternator.
