Default Heat question....

What are some techniques used to help cool down the interior of the vette? I also feel heat coming from under the dash and the air isn't talking outside air in the cabin it's on recirculating?

Thanks in advance,
Tony P.

There are alot of things you can do to cool it down. Heatmaster makes a heat shield that bolts on over the factory tunnel heat shield. If you want to get rid of most or all of the heat you might want to try using the ceramic coated heat shield/chassis stiffener from LAPD with a Heatmaster heatshield over it and the kit that one of the forum vendors sells that is placed under the carpet of the entire interior.

Wow....now I need to think about of the costs involved and if it's worth it....probably is.

Thanks,
