[DMCForum] heat shield



Well, I live in Germany and heat isn't really a problem here ;-)

I installed that shield 10k miles ago and no problem so far. I also
painted
the 
aluminum with silver POR15 high temp paint. 

Calculating it would be really professional but in my case I think it's
not
necessarry.
If a gap is really needed, use two 1mm aluminmum sheets and separate them
with 1-2mm
washers. That's almost the maximum you can do regarding available space
and
stability.
