Phil, Dave has some custom made one's, A sandwidge of stainless and asbestos free material. I bought one for Frenchy, I can't tell you the price because itwas included with a full set of exhaust brackets etc. Regards Chris Parnham -----Original Message----- From: Phil Peters [mailto:PhilPeters@xxxx] Sent: 04 September 2003 02:14 To: doc-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [doc] Heat Shield Hi everyone, I want to replace the big heat shield that goes between the silencer/muffler and the engine pulleys but I have a coule of questions: As far as I know, the original heat shield was made out of asbesdos. Has anyone out there bought a replacement original part from a DMC vendor or is there a better (and less asbesdossy) option? I seem to remember Dave Woodyard and myself laughing at Mark Bourne making 'nob jokes' with a cardboard template of said heat shield at the NEC last November. I could use my existing shield as a template but what material would be best to use to make the new shield? Stainless maybe? All thoughts appreciated. -- Phil Peters VIN #4400 LHJ 58W DOC #84 Wolverhampton, UK ___________________________________________________ Mariner 10 is the only space probe to fly past which planet, sending back pictures showing it to resembling the Earth's moon?
