I know this subject has been covered many times, but let's beat a dead horse...
Finalizing some things before installing the wiring harness on my GT build, and need to make a decision on sound and/or heat control. Suggestions or opinions on the best materials for this and installation tips greatly appreciated. For instance: better to install on the engine bay side? Less effective if on the cabin side? Etc., etc. Interior bulkhead will be covered in Perlon, floors will be rubber mats. It won't be a quiet place, but a little mitigation is the goal. Thanks for any advice the 914 World brain trust might offer. These threads cover a lot, but which materials are best? http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=342295 http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=361863 Who has one of these? https://www.rix914parts.com/store/p29/914_F...uction_Mat.html Is this material available in sheets to apply to the interior ? |

I would suggest all.
Spray on lizard skin (ceramic spheres in paint) Dynamat inside and out Wool mat Rubber liner That covers many/most frequencies and stops the vibrations. The last bit is the glass, which is what it is. |
