Something must be missing, of all my squares there has never been one with excessive heat or noise from the engine compartment. I even drove my Blazer around for a while without any carpet in it.

i was thinking about doing the herculiner in the floor, but is it worth it?

depends on how much you put down mine is only 1/8 inch or so but it helps stop rust and it easier to clean than carpet plus it doesnt hold water like carpet

well my [passenger side has alot of rust on the floor i tack welded a patch over for now but ill try the suggestions and see what works best mabey even just do that all then throw the carpet and add some foam carpet padding to help
