Joe Enselmo still sells the older style PVC blankets but they need to be trimmed slightly to fit correctly and they only come in the standard 911 version 911 556 891 01. I usually just drop the motor an inch or two to remove and reinstall the air filter housing so as not to have to cut out a full size blanket to facilitate removal.

Richard, when you do the engine drop for only a few inches, are you doing that only via the engine mount bolts, or do you loosen the transmission bolt mounts as well?
I've done an engine drop, but I don't want to partially drop it and stress something (like the transmission input shaft, etc).
Thanks,
Don
