Has anyone resolved the issue of floorboard heat? I have installed PVC
sound/heat shield in the floor, lizard skin on the firewall, transmission
tunnel and under the seats. I am still having issues with heat. In a short
10 mile trip the floor heat will hit around 115 F. The passenger side it a
little better at 101 F. I am getting ready to try exhaust wrap since the
pipes are over 200 near the floorboard. Engine temps are good at 180 F. I am
not sure what else to try to get this heat down and make the car comfortable
for a long drive. Right now it is the only thing preventing me from taking my
car to the meet since I have a 3 1/2 hour drive and there are issues after 10
miles. Even if I could trailer it I am not sure it would be comfortable to
drive for very long.
