Asbestos Replacment products

[Bob Carriere]

The Duramat Extrmee can withstand heat up to 300 degree F.....

My concern is that with the tight fitting doghouse of the cab 11..... I have less than one inch of clearance between the engine cover side and the intake/exhaust manifold of the 261 engine on the passenger side..... wondering if it can withstand that kind of heat on a long run.....

I have been thinking of salvaging some asbestos cloth from old army tents.... that asbestos is usually found around the wood stove chimney outlet..... maybe salvage just enough to do a 6" by 8" patch over the Duramat X just in the one hot spot of the manifold.....

Wondering what Phil Waterman used on his cab 12........??

Would love to hear what others have used to replace the ill fated asbestos..?

What do you guys use in Australia..?
