The soundproofing on the bulkhead is looking rather tired and worn. I know you can replace it with heatproof shielding type stuff but I'm not keen on how that would look in the engine bay. Only other solution I can think of to keep the heat away from the various things that run behind there i.e throttle cable, clutch cable, would be to heat wrap the manifold.
Now I've never really dealt with heat wrapping exhausts and manifold so I'm not sure how much heat it actually prevents in the engine bay but would it be sufficient enough to prevent things melting if I removed the soundproofing?
