After something Lynn Hanover said a while back I’m not sure the Tangential muffler would be a good intermediary to another muffler. Apparently the length of the 2” exhaust manifold pipes coming from the rotor housing should be a wee bit longer than you generally have with a tangential (stuck up close the engine). My runners from housing to big 6” tube are only 4-5” long. I’m afraid that may hurt the total HP I generate and I’m really more concerned about HP than Db’s J

To Bob White, Jerry Hey and Joe Hull,

Looking forward to you firing up your engines and seeing how well the Tangential muffler works. or doesn't work. If nothing else, it would make a good manifold to run out of to a SpinTech! Keep us all posted. I'll let you know Bob, when I figure out where the EC-1 will be placed on the firewall so we know the length of the wiring.
