Reproduction hood insulation pad


Recommended Posts

Thanks, Gary.

Does anyone here have one installed of which they can show photos?

It's foil backed something... the actual insulation is cut to fit the cavities, then there is an ABS shield. $250 for the one that says FORD and $180 for the one that says nothing. You have to buy the whole thing as well. There is no option to buy just the insulation.

I wonder how something like butyl insulation would work under the hood.

How does ABS hold up against heat?

My engine bay get very hot for some reason, to the point the RH fender is too hot to touch for more than a few seconds when it is driven.

The melting point of ABS is 221F. Typically 130 degress is thought to be too hot to touch for any length of time. So ABS might hold up.
