Is the Super Trap muffler a candidate for use on a 13B engine in an RV-6?
I'm not familiar with its size and weight, or material.

Well its small and light. I don't know if it will work with
the heat from a rotary. Super Trap ought to be able to tell 
you if you tell them how long the exhaust pipe would be.

In an aircraft muffler you want the gases to come out in
a cohesive high speed stream. I think the gases come out of 
a Super Trap in a 360 disk shaped pattern which might increase 
the drag.
