Update; After conversations with my local shop, visiting with Keith (Keith Craft), Quick Fuel and checking out your suggestions I'm going to install a seperate heat shield and 1/2" phenolic spacer. After a quick study I would really like a "Super Sucker" but they seem to be most effective from 1 1/2" and above and I don't have the space. The science behind these spacers is fascinating and the applications are specific to your driving goals. I'll be curious as to the effectiveness of this approach vs. a "Turkey pan."
