In my experience the ceramic coating doesn't last forever , especially in salty climates like where we live.
I don't recommend heat wrap , your headers will rot ( unless they are stainless)
Just get some good heat sleeving and maybe add a bracket to keep your wires away from your headers .
Here's what I did..

I had the same problem, I would get some sleeves like TIMZ said,
with my random misfire I think it was jumping spark to the headers you could hear it when you listened under the hood, I would also check to see if a plug is cracked.
did you just install the headers and have these problems

today i replace all of the plugs n 4 on one side were all fouled at the tip im thinking im damaging the wires when i pull them offnow im getting a o2 sensor code and still more random missfires
im thinking about replacing all 8 wires with fresh ones
other than that i COULD be COIL PACS
