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.

Quote: | 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.
