Richard and Bill: here is the engine from all sides. Also included are some measurements from the cage to the Prop. It looks to me that a y'ed pipe coming out the back and down most of the way to the boom tube would be quite do'able. Bill If you try it out, keep me posted, I may want to take advantage of who ever does it for you for a pair of my own. I looked around a bit but could not find any pipe set ups that would trail the pipes down the back.Larry

This particular thread has me really interested, even though I don't own an HKS. Larry; can you post a picture or two of your HKS on the airplane? Would like to see it.

The placement of the muffler causes more problems than it solves. It screws up the wind needed to cool the engine, and slows the plane. I do not know if this engine needs a muffler? ( back pressure etc) If it didn't I would be thinking about collecting the two pipes in the middle between the cage and the prop having it come out below the boom tube. I would still put the oil cooler on the back of the cage however.
