Re: i say a shack, rattle and roll (something like that) 200 '88

posted by  someone claiming to be Don Foster on  Thu Nov 16 23:16 CST 2000 [RELATED]

Tear the stupid things off and toss 'em. Long ago I cut them off my '86 245 and off my '91 740 (from both the pipes and the converters), and the Heat Shield Gods remain happy with me.

"...was put there for a reason..."

Probably 'cause some Northern Idaho regulation demands heat shields to protect the endangered 3-winged wood weed weevil from extinction.

Screw the weevil! Cut those suckers off your car! Think of it this way: By lightening your car you're conserving fuel and reducing emissions. So you'd be helping the environment. Ralph Nader would be proud of you.
