Re: [T2] Upright in a late bay. How about the flipside?
Hiya Jamie, If you go with the cooling shroud from Oregon Performance be prepared to shell out some bucks. More than $500. However, the product is first rate quality. Jake wouldn't be associated with anything else. And I happen to know Joe L. the owner of Oregon Performance. A stand-up guy who knows his VWs.

Re: [T2] Bad P-mails - Just Ignore
Greetings All, At the risk of participating in a thread which is likely to get shut down for lack of obligatory bus content, I agree with Rick and Bob as to the reasons for and the reaction to postings which may contain some degree of "personal invective". I would urge anyone who feels they have been slighted to simply ignore that posting altogether. Chalk it up to the fact that the respondent had one too many beers when he posted. Do know that the rest of us out here on The List will also see that message for exactly what it is. You don't need to respond. Further, any sort of response will only prolong the thread (which is what I'm doing now, isn't it?) and opens the possiblility of casting you in a negative light.

[T2] Insulation Ideas
Greetings All, The Duck is going in to get a paint job next month and I am in the process of removing most everything from the shell. I pulled out the tarboards from the engine compartment and I got to wondering..surely there must be a better insulator than these *%^&$#@ tarboards. Recently when I was down in San Francisco I met a fellow Busser. He had removed the tarboard and placed some sort of foil faced solid insulation in its place. The pieces were sealed on the edge and the whole effect was that of a professional job. The metal tabs used to hold the tarboards were bent a little lower to hold this new insulation. Pretty spiffy. Clod that I am, I didn't ask him about that at the time. Basically I'm looking for something rigid (I don't think I want to do the floppy NASA stuff like Matt Bulley did), non flammable, and resistant to chemicals which will insulate both for heat and sound. I know others must have conquered this little problem in the past. Suggestions for materials or resources?
