Lots of choices:
Dynamat, Lizardskin, discount insulation that copies Dyna for less $.
On my HEMI car, I used the Summit version of Dyna and ran it all the way up the inside of the firewall.
I also used it on the floor, and then used an insulating type jute w/ the carpet..Works for me.Doing the same on my 55 Chevy sedan.

A Google search provides you with all the links needed for a decision.
