Carb heat shield . . . anyone try this?

Yep,
I have used that one. Now I have gone to the stackable type, as my LD4B intake is taller than the performer I had been running. And clearance is an issue for me. I just use two gaskets and one plate out of the kit. Much thinner than the Edelbrock one, and still seems to block the heat really well.

I ran one of these when I had a Carter carb on my old 340, worked great:

The fuel would still boil out over night but it solve the embarrising no start issue when I would stop and get gas or get ready to leave a car show. It is specially made for the boil over problem that todays fuels cause.
