I bought a heat shield from VB in 1992. It had white, what we called  
"fireboard", on the top side only. In 2002 I sent it back and they  
replaced it with one that had gray pulverized card board on both  
sides. I wish I had stuck with the first one.

Hi John,

Do you really think that the setup you found on your car is not  
original to the car? I would highly doubt that all that was changed  
out at some time in the past. early pictures as seen in Robson's book  
can be excellent reference but one must be careful and keep in mind  
that some of his pictures are early BMC development pictures, some of  
which never actually went into production. For instance, the pair of  
pictures on page 67 is early stuff, but already has the double  
insulation fitted to the heat shield.
I would tend to photograph what you have for your records and go with  
what you found on your car.
