Like you said the uniform coverage and waterproof-ness are huge benefits. Seems like Dynamat is great for already completed rods that need upgrades. But if your stripping down a body like you are the LS is a simpler step to add to the process.
I'm in the learning and psych-ing myself up stage, learn from others and plan my attack. My truck needs the usual Chevy rust replaced, and I've just got it back on the road after 8 years (that would have been the time to work on it) so I don't want to loose it for another season. I'll work it out, but for now keep the awesome updates rolling.
