Ok so about sound deadened and or heat barrier. There is tons of stuff out there and I can't say any of it is wrong or right.
But I can say this.
I'd rather deal with noise then heat. Here is what I did.
I used spray on clear bed liner on the floors first
Then, using a roller, I used heat barrier. It's the no name eBay bubble foam stuff hush mat dyna mat blah blah blah heat barrier. Same crap dei heat shields are made out of, but only the ones that with stand 500 degrees. The other stuff can with stand way higher temps but is too much money and overkill for a firewall and floorboards. They ever get close to 500 degrees you will have more to worry about than being cool in your car.
Anyway I got it from eBay and used insulation tape at all the corners and 3m spray adhesive to hold it to the floor and firewall. I also used the stock b body firewall insulation pieces. In the surfaces that I'm not worried about pieces heating up and sliding off of, I used peel and seal. It is, again, all on top of clear spray in bedliner.
