240Z vs 260Z floors for sound deadening

[Agno]

Hi All,

I'm looking to redo the sound deadening in my 260Z and stumbled across this post from Gav in a build thread:

And when you want new sound deadening...

This guy sells it. Cut like OEM.

That kit looks like exactly what I want because I was hoping to avoid the shiny dynamat type stuff and it's well priced (even factoring in the exchange rate) for something I don't need to spend hours cutting myself. Is there any major difference in LHD vs RHD and 240Z vs 260Z floors that would make this not work? My car is a 1975 260Z for comparison.

Instead of the stick on sound deadening have you considered this option as a replacement for the deadener and the jute matting?

You can then put the carpet over the top of this.

The floor pans are different on 260z vs 240z and therefore the sound deadening material will be a different pattern. I'm not sure if he offers the later style? There is a couple of guys in Europe who do excellent high end restorations and may be able to help re: 260z patterns as they had made up their own material in the original style from memory I'll see if I can find a link (Chris who does the 240z reproduction fuel tanks is 1 of them).
