...did the same thing...
ha ha ... my '73BGT has the original rubber mats still
snapped down in place... then a layer of indoor/outdoor
short tight loop foam backed berber carpet cut like floor mats
than plush MG carpet, then rubber logo floor mats
...you can't hear the engine at ANY speed. And this is without
all the wind noise of the convertibles.
..... but I do hear the nasty rear end howl under power at 70+.

Wow! I hate to admit it, but my MG is like a different car with the
insulation in place. Cruising down the road at 35 mph, I cannot hear
the engine. Same thing at 55.
Big difference for a little $.
