Engine compartment insulation
Engine compartment insulation
The insulation in the engine compartment is starting to disintegrate. Anyone ever replace this? More hassle than it's worth?

Re: Engine compartment insulation
Dynamite or an equivalent is great to keep panels from vibrating, but won’t absorb sound that’s reflecting around in an enclosed space. I’ve used a foam over a material like Sonic Barrier (Dynamat substitute): https://www.parts-express.com/car-audio ... nd-damping
With either plain foam on top or a combination material like https://www.parts-express.com/Sonic-Bar ... 24-260-530

Re: Engine compartment insulation
If I wanted to use the Link’s of materials you listed, which part is on the fiberglass and which piece is the one on top? I kinda assume the aluminum is the outer on top piece.
