i covered my engine cover with three layers of fiberglass on the outside and one layer of 'space age" insulation (aluminium and foam, very space age) and it made a huge difference but the road noise and squeaks and rattles are still bad, next on my list

My van use to be fairly noisy so I have added a few extra speakers and a couple of amps, cant say I still notice the other sounds any more. The down side is I could be deaf after a few more years of driving the van.   
And you thought owning a bedford was going to be easy.

WHAT?
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"
