I definitely would want more shielding seeing how close the TC and trans is are in line with your legs. Those things when they explode are terrifying even with a Kevlar blanket.
Seen plenty shoot their guts through all the shielding, tunnel door and roof. Luck all failures I had seen were out the right ride on LHD cars. They seem to all explode out on the right side, not a good thing for RHD lol
