Sampson 35 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi allI have the cast muffler ends and when removing the other day Im puzzledthe muffler ends seem to have large holes (say 3/4") in them for the holding together rodsthe outlet end has like an exhaust cutout flap on end with lever to operate.The question is with the flap closed until opened, how does the exhaust gases exitand what should be the overall length of the muffler, I guess to the opposite chassis railso it is able to be supportedThank you for any guidanceRegards David Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv2Wrench Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 The tube that connects to the end caps has lots of holes drilled in it. The two rods that hold the end caps together are hollow and have slots cut in them. With the cutout closed, the exhaust enters in one side, escapes through the holes in the main tube, moves around inside the cylinder and eventually makes its way through the slots in the two rods and exits. I'll add a picture or two later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv2Wrench Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 David, I just posted a thread about my muffler. Hopefully this should answer your questions. If not, just reply in that thread with what you need to know and I'll try to answer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
