dynamat
i have a 400 hp olds and used dynamat extreme on all interior floorpan and regular dynamat in trunk . i noticed a large noise reduction and noticed a big difference when i did the doors later. it takes the noise and makes it a lower tone for what you do hear. i like the idea using it on wheelwells so not to tear the interior apart. i have taken my olds apart so many times it is scary , but not the electronics and hardwhare that the vette has.

When can I drop mine off for a week to have the same thing done? I figure with your current employer, and your experience installing it already, you should b able to mine in a couple of days. Just let me know.

***Two big helpful hints! ***
Wear mechanics gloves or something for two resons. If the Dynamat gets under you nails, it's gonna be there a while. Secondly, the foil part of it cuts the $h*T out of your fingers. Trust me. I lived and learned.

Did I hear someone say "Dynamat install day" in Los Angeles. My trunk can hold a case of beer or I can open up my garage if needed. I bet it would be easier and quicker if someone has done the install? I hate to invite myself, but this is a project I have been wanting to do.

Myles! You just missed mod day at my house last Saturday! But Dynamat day will be a "little" longer. I'm in whenever someone needs help! I think 3 people per car should move things right along. It's not that bad .... when you're not solo. I did the solo route. 
Post in the Pacific section if you wanna try and organize a day. I'm outta town Nov. 16-23, so some day after that is good.
