Thread: Hood insulator

    Default Hood insulator

    Does any one no off anyone that does custom hood insulator? Looking for one for a 82 gt. Or a good insulator other than the plain pad and push pins. Thanks

    I've watched this one on eBay forever but never jumped. Were you happy with the online one you got?

    Trying to find your pictures. The hood insulator shown in post is for a 2.3 turbo correct?. Not a 302? Thanks

    The one I posted from eBay does state Turbo Only but should work with any that had the hood scoop IMO.

    Here are the pictures snkchmr's car with a 302. It looks like the same one I linked but not 100% sure.

    Mike, what is the final say on the fit and finish and quality for your application? Is the one I linked the same as the one you bought and the same as available on LMR?

    I never noticed before but the same seller has the "non-turbo" hood insulator available for 79-82 also:

    Pretty boring looking if you ask me:

    Pretty sure the 302 version does not have the square cutout section at the top left (when installed) of the scoop opening. I can look at mine to confirm....
    These may not be OEM concourse correct, but look like a really nice reproduction alternative for those needing the functionality of the hood insulator.
