You might want to look at what Just Aircraft supplies for the Highlander. Its one muffler for each side. You end up with dual pipes and a nice compact package.

Hi Jimmie,
As far as I know, the model 4 muffler was made by the Kitfox people specifically for the Kitfox plane. It is not a Rotax part. Are you sure you need a new one? Several people I know, including myself had the baffle inside come loose. We cut the muffler open and rewelded the baffle and welded the muffler closed again. A year later, the baffle came loose again. That time, I cut the muffler open and removed the baffle before closing things up. It's been running fine ever since with little or no difference in sound or temps.
That's my experience, for what it's worth. I have approximately 200 hours of no baffle running time with no problems. Good luck.

Actually I was checking for a friend of mine. Not having seen the muffler I am not sure about the repairability of it.
One thing that comes to mind though, our Kitfox's will certainly outlast the mufflers and all of us will eventually need a muffler and exhaust pipes. Perhaps John McBean has plans to provide them in the future.
Appreciate the response.
Have a great Thanksgiving.
Jimmie

Hello Jimmy,
I just had a new muffler installed on my header pipes by John McBean.
( Kitfox Aircraft now ) I sent in my header pipes and he put them in the
appropriate Jigs to fit the 912 UL to the kitfox IV 1200, I got them back last
thursday an installed it the next day, and they fit like a glove.
Call John McBean, he can fix you up. amoung a lot of other things
David, 4 1200 912 UL
( No one else is capible in doing this )
