Easy Tiger!
    The Carbon Fiber itself definitely will, it's the particular resin they
use in fabrication of the part, you must be concerned with. There are high &
low temp resins. Some will burn off at relatively low temps 300F, others can
withstand over 800F. Either way the Carbon Fiber cloth itself will be
relatively unscathed at much higher temps. You'll need to query the
Manufacturer as to his particular composition.
    Hope this helps, finally, Jim
