Gasdoc's ERA build - #813

Definitely get the heat shields and engine insulation from ERA. They don't cost much and they are effective. But as I mentioned before I'd also recommend adding your own CoolIt inside on the tunnel, floors, footboxes, and the back of the dash.

I think I have pretty much every option offered by ERA except the wool carpet and the windshield squirt bottle. There's not a single one that I would "trade back."

i sprayed Lizard Skin Ceramic Thermal coating on the entire interior of mine, including the tunnel, foot boxes and fire wall and then put Dynamat on top of that. I also added the header heat shields and wheel well vents. A little excessive? Probably, but being in Texas i didn't want to subject my feet and legs to any more heat if possible.

I forgot to mention the back of the dash - very important. My whole cockpit is lined in B-Quiet damper and Cool It - even lined the metal plate on the inside of the door under the carpet with B-Quiet so the doors sound solid. The floor pans and transmission tunnel are also covered with lizard Skin underneath. But I have undercar exhaust and I'm sitting literally on top of 500 deg mufflers. Added a few pounds to my car I'm sure.
