Sitting in traffic and long drives- definitely. NCRS event- Nope!!!
You've spent a couple hundred bucks on the lizard skin- why not spend a little more and make a big difference-
Look at every new car the past 20+ years and they use all sorts of heat-shielding outside the passenger cabin...The space shuttle uses heat shielding on the exterior too!!!
I used the "zero clearance" adhesive backed heat shielding- and did the Lizard Skin on the interior too-
I would max everything out. Using aluminum to absorb to dissipate heat on the outside. Lizardskin is an insulator which works great but I would still top it with a another barrier.
I didn't use Lizardskin but at some point I'll add it. Just doing the outside made a huge difference.
Right now everything is gutted with the engine out so I have free access to do anything
I am mainly concerned with the firewall and forward floors at this minute
Putting in a Vintage Air evaporator this week so I need to make some decisions soon
How far up the firewall did you bring the exterior insulation
With the engine out the whole tunnel and a little of the firewall then left and right as high as I could go until you start running into other things in the way of the sheet.
