| Post subject: | Heat shield |
What is the best heat shield for an exhaust? My muffler is close to my fuel filter and pump and it's very close to my boot floor. I was thinking either; galvanised tin, alloy sheet or, stainless sheet. I have access to all of these and don't want to spend any money  .

SS wins on 2 counts: 1. It's shiny (reflects heat) 2. It's a poor conductor. But any will work for you if there's an air gap.... |

Just so you know this is what I'm facing. The white circle is the filter, due to the angles it is actually further away than it looks but still close. 
Yeah wombat we should catch up some time. |

It's rather firm but has a ship load more movement that cotton reels. |
