[TR] [6pack] Heat Shield/Sound Barrier Installed - Carpet Next

[N197TR4 at cs.com]

Looks and sounds interesting Marty,

I am thinking about doing something like this with my AMBRO - TR project.

The engine (TR4) is set back 10 inches and I am expecting more heat transfer 
into the cockpit.

I'll be interested in the final outcome, if you can share this.

Thanks Marty,

Joe Alexander
