the stuff you scraped up was probably the original stuff.

JFYI...I did a search on sound deadner and heat insulation material and B-Quiet is very very close to Dynamat as far as specs go but cheaper. I bought mine off ebay and got free shipping.

oh ok i can get a good deal at the local electronic store i know a few guys there and can get me a good deal on dynomat.. gotta get the metal work done first before i worry about that haha.. just wondering what i was i was scraping up a real PITA.. but oh well what isnt these days right?

tim21391...all the work on your truck will make you appreciate your truck. Good deal on the Dynamat.

thanks i will love it when its done.. i have dreams alot of how i want it done.. when its done i dont care how much a gallon of gas is people will see me crusing around almost all day when i first get it done... its been almost 3-4 months since i have drove it

I'm actually shocked how well the stock under coating does. With no carpet, or sound deadener in my truck, it's quieter than my '90 firebird, even the wind noise is less. I can hold a normal conversation even over the roaring V8 with 4.10 gears at 65..

well i went and talked to the guys that sell this stuff.. i can get the hush matt kit for $100

Check out ebay if you want sound deadener.

I picked up 50 sq feet of a cheaper alternative and it cost me $80 shipped to my door.

tim21391 · 02-23-2009, 12:25 AM

i think the kit is $100 for 200 sq ft... i think i can get employee discount not sure yet... long ways from that point haha gotta worry about filler and primer first
