I have seen some options out there,
1. Stock 2. After market a. AA pad b. Rix914parts- modern material, light weight c. dynamat d. 914rubber pad. 3. -others?? Also in the cab, the rubber sound deadener( I assume this was only for sound or vibration, since it is rubber I doubt it did much for heat) - I pull this out it was stock and am trying to decide if I should put it back in again or do dynamat or something like this on the inside firewall before putting the backpad back in |

Inside the cab rubber mat was just for noise that would have come through the large piece of metal. The later cars 73-up got the firewall protection that turn out to be a rust disaster. I am going with the light weight foil application in the engine bay and dynamat in the cab.
