I believe it could cause problems - there is the brake and clutch master cylinders nearby and they will get too hot not to mention loads of rubber parts and wiring nearby!!
Having said that a friend of mins has an early classic that has run without a heatshiled fot years and never had any problems associated with no heat shield.
Personally I would try and fit one or get a turbo blanket instead!!

You could use some adhesive heatshield from demon tweeks to cover any other by components your worried about.
My last car (non scoob) i fitted a 4 branch mani too it and had to ditch the heatshield and used the adhesive stuff to cover various sections on the bulkhead and it worked fine
