I got one of the heatblock blankets for my 1800 and it's great.

If you're on a budget however (as I was with my 122) and want to do the firewall and floor (and even underneath the hood) for short money get a roll of sound/heat insulation from J.C. Whitney. I hate to suggest going there, but it is one of about three decent things that they sell. They have two types. I used the non-foam-backed kind:

I also made good use of the tape and adhesive. It worked really well- the difference is astounding. And It's been under the hood with little to no deterioration for over five years now...
