I'm looking into it for my diesel truck, because anything I can do to lower underhood temps will also reduce the need for cooling air. The factory put so much excess air through there. They designed for a worst-case scenario. When I calibrate the grill louver system, one of the temps I will watch is the area right over the manifold and turbo. A blanket should help greatly.
