Jerry, Tracy Crook flew with a similar Tangential muffler for a number of
hours.  The neat thing is it does fit under the cowl and suppress sound
nicely, the un-neat thing is it acts like a large oven under the cowl and
keeps cowl temps highly elevated.  I am fairly certain that is why Tracy
removed it.
