I am running a stock sound pad on my 3.0L-6!
Cool, thanks! How long, and no problems? How tight is it? Any tricks?
Nice looking conversion!! Gotta be a gas with 3.0 liters...

Thanks!
Coming from you, that's a complement!!
I finished the sound wall in Feb of 2012. It was glued in with 3M Super Adhesive and fits very tight.
So far there are no signs of it pulling away but I used alot of glue!
As for tips, I test fit everything and marked three lines on the top and the wall so I could line everything up the first time. I set the bottom in place with someone holding it out flat. Then sprayed the glue in two coats on the firewall and the pad and let it dry for about 3 minutes. Then tilted it up trying to line things up and started pressing from the bottom middle out and up!
I put some 2x4's to push against the pad over night so it didn't pull away from the weight of the pad!
