I figure one wide piece across the trunk and hanging down the sides, with some short side extensions to protect the fenders under the targa sails.

No, the vendor I found is Madison Speaker Components, who sell this stuff by the yard for lining speaker enclosures.

Back under the car today. First, I connected the ground strap before I forget.

The back cover is easy, and I was able to re-use the clamp.

But I hate the front rubber cover. It took me 20 minutes to get it around the flange on the firewall.

I decided to make a checklist for the engine installation--maybe the next time I will not forget something.

Here's the first version of my work cover. Total length is a about 3 yards, with cuts to fit into the engine compartment.

Plus a couple of magnets. (I decided to get some bigger and stronger magnets.)

View on the inside. The edge tucks under the torsion bars and release cable tube, so the trunk lid edge is protected.

I tested the cover with some work on the engine top. I hooked up the vacuum lines, including the line that goes through the trunk wall to the EFI CPU.

Back in town and on the job. I need to connect things below and above.

In prep for bolting on the heat exchangers, I gave the copper gaskets a heat treatment.

Then time for rubber surround clips. They might look like office supplies, but they are actually custom 914 parts.
