great idea where does one buy dry ice?NewBossowner said:Justin, Dry ice works well without the watery mess and lasts a bunch longer.
Well it has been a few years since I used this trick at the track but chemical houses, or gas suppliers ( welding supply ) used to carry it. I googled it and got a ton of listings for my area, so maybe that's the best way now. Wear gloves, do NOT touch with your bare hands. The burns are brutal.Justin said:great idea where does one buy dry ice?

no thanks on the meth been there done that with my cobra. Cost me an engineSean said:Or you can use meth and drop your Intake Temperatures by 120 degrees. Dry Ice is probably cheaper if you don't go to the track very often though.

NFSBOSS said:For fun I looked up the Cobra Jet and Boss 302 intake instructions at the Ford Racing website. For the CJ intake install there it no mention of the foam pieces being removed but there are photos of the foam pieces, page 10, and you can clearly see the foam pieces in place after the CJ intake is installed, page 21. They did not reinstall the fuel rail covers, page 38. You can download the instructions at the link below.

On the Boss 302 instructions for a GT there is no mention of the foam pieces and none are included in the kit.
What does this mean? I haven't a clue but like Scott stated it isn't going to hurt anything removing them.
honestly if you can find peel and stick heat shield sheet and just cut your own and get some quality edge tape your probably better off. Nothing elaborate about this kit really just rectangle with a slight angle cut on the fwd edge.NFSBOSS said:I never installed this on my Boss and had forgotten about this. I might at some point. If it's snake oil it's cheap snake oil and probably can't hurt.
