Some years ago there was a thread on this and many recommended a heat proof
coating for Char-Broil Smokers Item 418 6119. It came in a roll and was
available at Home Depot. They told me that Char-Broil was thinking of
discontinuing this product so I bought all of their stock (two rolls - HA!).
Anyway, I lined my tranny tunnel with it and it is great. Probably have the
same type of product at a BBQ store. One caveat is that it is pre-cut for
doors, etc. on a smoker but with all of the curves, etc on the bottom side
of the tunnel, this is not a problem as I had to put the liner on with
several small pieces.

Richard: Yes, there has been much discussion and numerous recommendations.
Personally, I am using a foil/foam heating/AC duct product available at home
improvement stores such as Home Depot or Lowes. It is self-adhesive, foil
backed dense foam, 12 inches wide, 1/8 inch thick, 15 feet long, and costs
less than $20.00 per roll.
I covered both the inside and outside of the tyranny tunnel and can not feel
any heat being transmitted in that area.
Can not comment on sound barrier. When it get too noisy (is that possible?
;-) ), I can just turn off my hearing aids. That is seldom necessary,
however, as I love all the sounds that I am hearing from my car.
