What is the technical term for the heat-shield type lining on the firewall?

 

useless

 

this

 

Well it has been creased the opposite direction it is supposed to be facing, thus leaving it literally limp-looking and not molding to the firewall like it should (Looks tacky).

I don't think I've seen a car without it though as it does remove a decent amount of heat.

Does it have a specific name?

 

when i went turbo i had to pull it off to fit my turbo cuz it was so close to the firewall. since my turbo gets wayyy hotter than ANY exhaust manifold for the LSJ, its fine if you just take it out

 

Holy crap really? Do you have pictures? I imagine it would look funny. :P

 

um.. maybe hold on

 

not the greatest pic, but its just the color of your car

Oh! I kind of like that. I would like to replace it though. I just don't know what to search for on gmpartsdirect.

 

can't see it too well but no firewall padding here either



before it was finished :P

 

try googling gmpartscheap.com

 

What's the part called though? :/

 

dunno, but they have a whole exhaust section, only place i found online that has the exhaust tunnel heat shield
