George,

I bought one of those. The glass packing lasted about an hour then the whole thing ended up like a maraca. I took it apart and emptied out the glass then put it back. The stainless seems to be holding up and is probably a little better than no muffler at all - but not much.

Before I fly next I will have a quality muffler hung under the fuselage - in hopes of enticing the wife to come along. And that's an uphill battle at present. :-)

In the back of the latest catalog from Burns Stainless, they show some
glass pack style mufflers made from 321 Stainless, with high temp packing.

I'm tempted to try one. They list various sizes, and offer custom builds.
IIRC, not priced too high- about $200 or so.

Please let me know if it works OK.
