Kim, adding sound deadener and plugging the holes to decrease water ingress and heat transfer is actually quite easy. take a shop light and put it in the interior and look for the light in the front clip area then plug the holes with neoprene. remove the seats and plug the area around the parking brake( the main sourse of heat ) and a couple of areas behind the seats. Add 5/8 inch neoprene to the motor side of the bulkhead and under the carpet on the bulhead, you will be suprised at the decrease in noise and heat. The a/c works well at this point. My CAV had similiar issues and with a little work it is much better now.
