I have this thought stuck in my head that I need to cut a big hole in the side of FSJ and have the exhaust blow out that big hole...  TDay Unfortunately the mufflers I made originally are just to big to accomplish the task at hand. Plus as Dave and I decided tonight they are a little too quiet. Right one in the pic.

So I made a snail shell muffler or what we have been calling the Cinnamon roll. A little better space arrangement and workable but its whisper quiet... Aint going use that one! Center one in the pic.

So tonight Mr. Moorehouse and I went smaller yet and I think we hit paydirt? We bent up a 9" X 6" X 2" tall muffler that sounds much more like what Im after. Mind you it was tried on the forklift so Im still not 100% sure but i think its worth building another one to see. Anyway I can get the the tail pipe up to where I want to plasma cut that big hole. Im Happy now. punk clown Thanks once again for the help Dave! left one in the pic.

I would like to hear a Spin tech sometime... Are they a streetable muffler? They advertise them as being unique in their sound? Are they? heres their ad pics.

I've heard them in real life behind a 351w with a cam and true duals.  Sounded a little funny at idle but it sure sounded mean and loud at higher rpms.

Nope... Top Secrete!   Kinda of a cross between a Swirl, and  a Spin with a Venturi speed bump in the middle. Way to high tech for pictures of these innards. nono no TDay
