the "heat problem" is probably the foam insulation block falling apart - the
block sits on top of the central tube and surrounds the shift lever
mechanism to block heat and noise from under the car entering through the
hole in the floor pan -- try stuffing some foam from the top or drop the
exhaust / exhaust shield and replace the foam block from below .

Another reason for the heat entering is that the motor mounts are probably 
bad, which allows the engine and torque tube to drop, which allows hot air 
to enter,
