Unfortunately I made the hideous decision of getting Amazon ones because they know how to hit a price/performance target. Those bastards!

I originally had only planned on replacing the factory one on the driver side so I only ordered one pack, but once I got into it and realized I was doing all of it I had to order another pack.

Well the process continues, finally!

I added more rows behind. You can see the grey paint where there was factory material that isn't covered, but overall more coverage on more flat areas the better.

That's the vibration this stuff absorbs: flat areas of sheet metal.

That's why I added more to some key areas in the front and the back: 👇

I’d say just do the whole floor in silver from summit racing

i dabble with ai using open data from crypto https://alexpaden.tech

never seen anyone I knew use acoustic foam in hotrods that I can recall but fair enough

Cost/benefit trade-off.

The Amazon stuff hits a great price point for "good enough". It's cheaper and thicker than a lot of budget products.

All-in I'm less than $50 on this project and I've more than doubled the original factory coverage. I was only originally planning on replacing the factory stuff, so I'm already exceeding my goals 🤷

Anything over like 40% coverage has drastically reducing marginal benefit for butyl vibration material from what I've researched.

Closed cell acoustic foam would be better money spent, imo, for additional benefit. I may add a little more to the rear area tho, we'll see.
