Re: [DML] catalytic heat shield

["jtrealtywebspannet" <jtrealty@xxxx>]

I know that PJ Grady sells a non-asbestoes replacement that looks 
almost exactly like the origional. When removing the old one just try 
not to make any dust or shake any pieces loose and immediatly place in 
a sealable plastic bag. Double bag it. Dispose of properly, many 
states have a hazardous pick-up site that you can take it to. You can 
also buy a heat wrap tape to wrap the exhaust pipe where it goes over 
the transmission which is especially useful on an automatic to prevent 
exessive heat on the trans. The heat shield is needed on the converter 
especially if for some reason the engine runs too rich that thing can 
start to glow red hot! There is also a heat shield on the muffler that 
can be replaced.
