    Battery Heat Shield?

    Installed Mark's exhaust and realized there isn't a heat shield from the exhaust to the battery. The stock exhaust had a heat shield there. Do you think one is needed??

    Exhaust shield

    Since most aftermarket exhaust systems cant use the factory heat shield is there any chance a coated (kreem etc.) gas tank would be affected by the heat? I cant imagine it getting hot enough to do any harm but I wonder about the coating failing due to the extra heat.
