The Jute is original but not really a good heat insulator. If you are
looking to block as much heat as you can I would recomend using
Dynamat on the entire floor first rather than the tar paper. Include
covering the transmission tunnel and vertical panel on both sides as
well as behind the front kick panels especialy on the drivers side.
Then use Dynaliner on the floor in front of the seats and foot box
area. There really is no need to install any insulation under the
seats it will interfere with the seat tracks.
I now have put on my fire suit because there are probably 1000
different opinions about this.
