Yeah, pistons hitting the cowl make lots of noise,… then silence.  (ask me how I know this)

I would like to take some readings from a certified engine for
comparison.   I measured 104db at 3000 & 4000 rpm from my spiral flow
muffler. 

 

I'd bet the average Lycoming would make a lot more noise at 3000-4000 rpm :-)
