Alan:
I'm restoring my my 1961 BT7 and I'm using a product called Lizard Skin.Lizard
Skin is sold in a back and a white bucket. (www.lizardskin.com) or look on
ebay. They sell two products the one in the black bucket is a sound deadner
the one in the white bucket is a ceramic heat shield. The amazing thing is
that these spray on like a bedlinner using a spray gun.
I can atest to the affective use of both they were just installed by my
painter. Very easy application no smell no overspray and is water soluable and
easy to mix.
There is a demo on you tube under( lizard skin application.)
i just thought I'd mention this incase you were looking for an alternative
source for a heat shield.
Contact me off list if you'd like more info . (Not a sales rep just a Healey
lover)

I've had over a dozen Healeys starting with my first '60 3000 MK 1 in 1969,
hey all had the asbestos heat shield. I've parted out 10 or 12 & don't
emember any not having them. My '63 & '67 do, have to look under my '53 BN1,
an't remember. cheers Geno

Alan,
The heat shield above the muffler didn't come along until the Mk.II
model, so it is correct that your BN4 does not have it. Why not
insulate under the carpet to keep the heat out? While you are at it
upgrade the insulation under all of the carpet. You will find many
using expensive products like Dynamat and Koolmat, but you can have very
good luck with less expensive products also.
