How does this wrap look?

http://www.amazon.com/Black-Racing-Fiberglass-Exhaust-Header/dp/B00DP9MXZS/ref=sr_1_56?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1394845082&sr =1-56&keywords=exhaust+wrap

Given a 9.5" circumference (3" pipe) and a needed run of ~50" if I stop at the U bend before the muffler, or ~62" if I include it, and assuming I overlap so that it's double wrapped, one 50 foot roll ought to do it, or two if I want to do the entire length of the pipe. Will 1000°F rating be fine all the way up to the motor, or would it be wise to get some 2000° rated wrap for the header?

EDIT: @jedi_sol, where did you put your jack to lift your 'Sol up enough to get the jack stand under it in the back?
