Exhaust Heat Shields

DESCRIPTION
The catalytic converters have an integral heat shield attached to them and are not to be removed.

OPERATION
Heat shields are needed to protect both the car and the environment from the high temperatures developed in the vicinity of the catalytic converters.

CAUTION: Avoid application of rust prevention compounds or undercoating materials to exhaust system heat shields on cars if equipped. Light over spray near the edges is permitted. Application of coating will greatly reduce the efficiency of the heat shields resulting in excessive floor pan temperatures and objectionable fumes.
