I would recommend putting a insulated wrap on the starter and muffler. When I received my car the starter already had one. A couple years ago I put one on the muffler and I'm glad I did. It keeps a lot of that heat out of the engine bay! It definitely makes opening the engine bay on a warm day at a car show more bearable.
I also have headers and I don't think wrapping them is really necessary.
