Yes, a shield on the manifold itself will retain heat and cause cracking. A shield around the end of the compressor will protect it from the heat radiated from the hot manifold. So, not putting a shield on the manifold was a good move but not having one on the compressor is the dumbest thing I've ever seen. Especially considering they put one on the '87 9000t compressor and must've said to heck with it when they switched to a newer style compressor used on our '92
