			I'm running my 170 I/O without insulation and I think it could be quieter at cruising speed.  When I saw Destroyer's post, I kicked myself again - I had a pile of lead we demo'd out of of an x-ray room in the early 90's and finally got rid of it just before I started fishing seriously.  I could be casting a lot of weights and maybe quieting down my engine.  The sheet wasn't all that thin and probably would have made the engine cover weigh a ton, so I'll have to forgive Destroyer for making me kick myself AGAIN - I do wish I had that lead though.
