Re: Sound / heat mat
I like RAAMmat BXT for sound deadening (panel vibration dampening). It works as well as DynaMAT Xtreme and costs a lot less.
http://www.raamaudio.com/categories/...Foam-Products/ For a heat barrier, lay some of this on top of the RAAMmat: http://www.competitionproducts.com/T.../#.VKbY99LF98E It's essentially blue jean fibers with a foil backing that will lower your floor temperature substantially.

Re: Sound / heat mat
I had a member on another forum suggest adhesive asphalt flashing. He said it works almost as well as Dynamat and is about 1/3 the price.

It's rubberized asphalt, not butyl rubber. There is a difference. Edit: I clicked on the wrong link. What you linked is butyl rubber, but damn it's small. Seems like it would take a while to lay down. |

Re: Sound / heat mat
That was just an example. I'm sure there are other options

http://www.homedepot.com/p/UltraTouc...8?N=5yc1vZbedf I used both of these products. It was far cheaper the the Fatmat or DynaMat before installing my new carpet. |

Re: Sound / heat mat
If anyone reading is shoestring budget looking for a temporary fix I've found that a big piece of memory foam under the seat soaks up enough sound to have conversations at highway speed even when you have worn out door seals and a whole in the floor. doesn't help on the heating side of things though...

Re: Sound / heat mat
So i used to preach about Fatmat, and the similar types of stick down insulation. My 77 Pro street( 6-71 blown sbc) thats bagged and body dropped. I had 3 layers on the floor, my firewall was done, and my doors inside and out. while it did good for sound, i melted it, and my carpet was stuck to it. it seeps up through the edges. I also did my 97 crew cab , as it is my tow rig. Also melted through on the floor and actually got so hot, that my wife couldnt put here feet on the floor as it would burn her. We were towing through nevada in 105 degree weather. and i live in socal where its always warm. that being said, i am now gonna use Lizardskin on my new build. and see how it holds it up to heat. Also on my 77 the inside of the cab was always really hot. never needed a heater at all..
