RE: Heat protect Engine Bypass?
I do that on mine, 2 to 3 thick coats of BVM Heatshield, starting just forward of the case to nozzle junction all of the way back to the pipe.
It is really needed the most on the top of the bypass, as it seems to radiate up most of the heat, after shutdown when the bypass air stops. When they are running right the bypass remains pretty cool.
