Yes with pictures, the material used was part number FW2000 from www.aircraftspruce.com their phone thing is 1-877-477-7823 we did play with PN 970J and found it brittle, would fall apart when bent. We have done two cars so far an '86 4000 csq MC turbo and an '83 URQ and the reduction of heat on the intake manifold is about 60F using a Raytech on a black spot (raytech will not give an accurate reading on a shiny surface) and using an Andial intercooler temp guage the intercooler inlet temp is reduced by over ten degrees. well worth the time( an hour or so) to install. be sure to face the stainless steel side to the heat source and the aluminum to the cool side. and wear gloves, or the stainless steel will give you some really not cool cuts, and before I forget, check out the pictures http://home1.gte.net/~res0nyil/heatshield/ Best To All, Bill PS if you have questions, feel free to ask
