[Healeys] Heat Insulation

[Healey Bruce]

Ken, you see a lot of responses for Kool Mat and Dynamat.  I took a 
different route, as those products were too thick to allow me to use my 
existing carpet.  Fiberfrax is a ceramic cloth that is used in aerospace and 
aircraft applications.  It controls temps to over 2000 degrees.  I used 
1/16" thick layer on the floors, and glued it to the vertical surfaces with 
3M trim adhesive ("yellow snot").  It is cheaper than Dynamat by a lot--I 
don't recall how many feet I bought (comes 3 ft wide--perfect for the floor 
pans) but I spent about $50 and still have half of it left over.  I bought 
it from Aircraft Spruce and Specialty.  It cuts easily with scissors, but it 
will tear so you have to be a bit careful.
