Best looking muffler mod ever:)

[blsnelling]

First of all, all credit for this mod goes to Metals406. He had an idea for a muffler mod and asked if I had anything to try it on. It just so happened that I had a brand new Baileys 066 muffler from the GTG freebies. Yes, I kept this one for myself. Thanks Greg Nathan kept the details a secret, and I wanted it that way. Kind of like Christmas morning. I got the muffler back and here's what I found when I opened the box.

The idea behind the baffle is to create turbulence and help scavenging.

The screen is press fit and removable.

He was kind enough to completely remove the baffle. I've done this several times and it's a fair amount of work.

He complete welded the original exit shut using metal from the baffle.

BTW, this will be going on my 064.

looks good...i bet it will sound good.

Surface are without the screen is 1 sq in. The screen takes up about 20%. Without the screen should be about ideal for best performance. The screen will be nice for normal use.

Thanks. I understand it was only tuned to 13,700 too. It would have been a lot faster tuned to 15,000 where I tested it.

Huh. I don't see the big deal.


Mine was just as 'Purty!

 

[Bowtie]

Sorry, It just dont do it for me. No offense meant. Coolest ever? No way. Lakeside has that spot with the 361 mod. Even though its been done to death, its stihl awesome.

Nice! Looks like an exhaust tip off a 93-97 Z28, with a screen added.

Very nice work! I was actually thinking about a rectangular shaped tube for a port over lunch today. My concern with doing it is how to get the port on the right side... pointing down if possible... all I do with my saw (066) is mill, and I'd prefer to have the exhaust down and away, rather than up into my face. For regular cutting, yours would be fantastic! I guess I'll have to make a Millers Muffler Modification...

Nice job again!
