it is also very important that you plug ALL the holes in the firewall and make them airtight. I had heat coming into the foot well until I discovered that the hole through which the gas pedal linkage went up into the engine bay was letting lots of hot air in. Finally installed a small rubber bellow over the shaft and problem solved.
