As if I hadn't beat this horse to death..........

I always have a fear of applying anything to the engine side of the firewall.

Simply because it may catch and hold moisture and crreate a enviroment for MORE RUST.

I know I could make some homogenous, sealed, rubberized covering work.

And I know I could use the simple foil backed carpet pad kind of insulation which I KNOW will retain moisture.

Therefore I will be using nothing on th engine side. Because my car is a weekend warrior (when finished) (if finished) (Fuck whenever completed) (whatever)

On a street car without back pad. I like the neoprene/torch down scenario.
On a street car with back pad. Try the torch down only first. And see how ya like it.
On a street car that sees no water. Skys the limit. No water.. No rust....
On Aarons car... NADA. It's too ugly to make it sound less than a sardine can.....

There I go again...thinking I know something........... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
