and 27"(front) on the header.  It was not too bad when first run but that
cheap glass pack is loosing its stuffing fast and getting louder with

every

flight.  The CD player was not usable even with the Bose ANR headset.  I
just took temporary system off to begin making the permanent one.  The

glass

pack will be replaced with a SS (409 alloy) Edelbrock  RPM series muffler
with ceramic packing.  I expect this will be much quieter than the Thrush
glass pack.

I'll let you know how it works.
