Termi Hood Insulation.

Cricket · May 7th, 2009, 04:17 PM

I just took the insulation out because it is starting to fall apart. I dunno how I feel about it being out, and I have heard of paint blistering on cars without it because of the heat.

Problem is if I do decide to keep insulation under the hood I cant find any places that sell it, and I saw one that has where it says Cobra on it painted...can ya guys help me out here?

I haven't had the insulation on mine for awhile and my paint is fine. It's not a bad idea to replace it, but it will probably be fine for awhile

SWEET2KSTANG · May 8th, 2009, 12:59 PM

i priced one at the stealership for a friend, it was expensive but not all too awfully bad.

01cobra_racer · May 8th, 2009, 01:34 PM

got to a body shop and have them order one they should be able to get any oem part but that will be kinda expensive

Mustang RacR94 · May 8th, 2009, 04:39 PM

yeah, dealer quality OEM FTW

jumperjack · May 8th, 2009, 10:34 PM

I haven't heard of any paint issues from removing the insulation other then some of the undersides were not painted from the factory. I don't have a factory hood but do not have any insulation on mine and I running a KB 2.8h so far no issues.

Before I switched my hood I had purchased a replacement insulator from my local Ford dealership.. They got it for me in a couple of days. My old one got pretty nasty, so I kept the new just for shows and cruise ins.

i have had my car allmost three years with no liner in there. fact mine has ben painted under the hood, and its holding up perfectly. and my eaton tends to develop a little more heat than most.

tbirddmnd · May 20th, 2009, 05:04 PM

Mine are made of a far superior material to OEM. It's made for airplanes, it's definitely NOT fiberglass.

M.P. Cobra Fan · May 20th, 2009, 05:30 PM

I have been running without one for over a year now. Never had a problem with heat. I have never seen anyone that has any first hand knowledge of the paint blistering either. It is always, "I have heard that the paint can blister".

Diabeetus · May 21st, 2009, 04:34 AM

I have a Termi hood on my car with no insulation and my paint is fine. Oh ya, its black and I live in Las Vegas.

importdestroyer · May 29th, 2009, 09:37 AM

I removed mine several years ago. I did get the underside painted and I've had no problems. If you haven't done so, one thing that will help is cutting the flaps off of the hood vents. Alot of heat can be released at that point.

Diabeetus · May 29th, 2009, 02:46 PM

My flaps are gone and I can see the heat pouring out of the vents.
