This thread was partly provoked by comments in another thread that lamented the shortage of technical chatter on this site, and partly by a desire to get a better handle on placement of the forward heat shields, and the pluses/minuses with respect to the different forward hanger designs, with the idea that it might be a shortcut to having to figure out those things while lying on a creeper.

Live well,
