I bought some material on ebay that looks a lot like the original stuff. I have a bunch left ( I found some new sheilds and didn't end up using the material) if you want to make your own PM me with a mailing address and I'll send you some to try.

No problem. I don't know if this will work looking at your photos. My LT1 with LT headers, the exhaust runs no where near the mounts. So I wasn't real worried about very high temps. Before you spend a lot of time wraping and stapling this material, try baking some in the oven and see how it holds up.
Good Luck

Thought you might like to see the after. I removed the mounts and dissasembled the stock shields. They are made of a woven fabric covered with a type of foil. I scraped off the failing foil and glued on a layer of the material that scranage kindly sent to me. I then wired them back together.
I am pleased with the outcome. Thanks again, scranage.
