<VV> Acoustishield kit

[Sethracer at aol.com]

Any complaints about the fit hit home! <grin> When I met  the Quietride 
folks at the HotRod and Performance show in Indianapolis, I  indicated that 
they should add the Corvair to their offerings for sound-proofing  kits. Since 
they are located in Stockton, CA, not too far away from my home. I  
suggested that they could come by my house and take the measurements from a late  
coupe that was slowly leaving my rear driveway as I dismantled it and removed  
the pieces I needed. They did just that and spent quite a while measuring 
every  part of the stripped-out-interior coupe. I do recall that measuring 
under  the dash was painful looking! Just like working under there! I also 
arranged for  them to visit Mel's Vairmart in San Jose to measure an early 
model.

I'm also  installing the Quiet Ride kit in my LM.  As Bob noted, it's
both heat  and sound insulation with all the pieces being pre-cut.  It's
not  cheap, but as Bob says, "You can't take it with you."  I figure  a
Corvair is as good a place as any to put it.

The only piece that  didn't fit right is the one for the cowl, but there
isn't much heat or  sound coming from the trunk, so I left it off.
