Like me you have a V10 front engine. They are going to be a little noisy And have a little heat. I have tile throughout out and that just doesn’t absorb the noise. What I did is cut a thick pile matching color carpet as large floor mats in front of and around the front seats. That helped a bunch. If you have a plastic dash, place a thin carpeted dash mat. That keeps sound reverberating off the windshield. I also bought some sound deadening material and stuck it on the flat surfaces in the wheel areas.

As far as heat goes, I can assume you are talking heat from the engine. I had head on the passenger floor. What was happening the hot air from the engine does not go straight back, but to the side and on motorhomes they don’t build wheel wells. So i made a panel between the engine and wheel area. That stopped the heat in the floor area.

Here are pictures of the engine exposed then after I put the panel in.
