My understanding is the factory heat shield does NOT fit an FP manifold, mainly due to the height of the Cylinder 1 runner, but there are aftermarket solutions. I don't have an FP manifold.. yet, but I do have a manifold blanket which fits the factory manifold and the FP manifold. It's a very clean look when it's new, but if you pull it off and put it back on a bunch, the coloring/coating wears off. Mine is coming up on 3 years old, and still works great at keeping the heat down in my engine bay. Definitely would recommend.
You can purchase the manifold blanket directly from the person who makes them https://turbo-performance-products.myshopify.com/products/dsm-fp-manifold-blanket+1
I’m mocking up my FP manifold/ 20G install now. Tossing the OEM shield and using a manifold blanket. ExtremePSI is selling one now in a shiny woven silvery fabric... it actually doesn’t look bad.

The bracket at the bottom of that heat shield keeps snaping and I've fixed it like 3x already. It was brand new. Idk what to do anymore.They make a heat shield for itYou must be logged in to view this image or video.
