What type of metal should I use for the BHAF heat shield and thickness? Going to put in this weekend if I can get the right metal to cut. the other question is the heat blanket attached to the top of the hood does that need to come off too?

Heat shield can be out of steel or aluminium. I use a old Idaho Road Sign to make mine.

 

As for the hood liner doesn't matter I pulled mine off the 96 years ago keep the mice from eating it. Also slightly warmed air doesn't hurt for MPG's reasons. Optimal is 100-140*F at the IAT sensor.

If you are interested in one I can sell the one I have to you. It is made out of T6 aluminum IIRC.

how much and to ship it Kotta390? im up in Bismarck nd

I PMd you

Did you sell the shield? I would be interested.... 

yeah I did.

Thanks for the reply.

I made mine from a diamond sheet of metal I got from home depot , pretty easy to make.

Anyone have any pictures?
