what kind of ducting can I use to go from the blower motor to the J tubes? Is there any alternative to the stock ducting?

Knowing that one of the biggest problems with the heating system in these cars is heat loss. Has anyone tried using the foam insulation that comes in a can to unsulate the main ducting in the inner long?

This might provide more to the paper insulator that is already there.

When I bought my 914 a while back, there were no tubes connected to the blower motor. It was just kind of hovering over the engine with nothing to do. I didn't know about this site or how to get 914 stuff, so I went into the attic to get some PVC tubing and fashioned what you see here. I painted it black so the Home Depot stickers were not visible. My cost at the time was about $4.
