Hi Paul,
        Given the approx 1,000 hr. life for .035 stainless with Tracy's solitary
data point; I was wondering if you still think a .020 inconel muffler would stand
up. I was interested at .035 inconel, but am very leery at .020; while .125 would
be clear overkill. Making the right choice here is clearly critical; nothing like
an in flight fire to really ruin your day.

        BTW, sorry I missed you last Sunday; I landed about 5 minutes after you
left.

Regards.......Gary

I do think .020 Inconel is too thin.
