Please look at this proposed muffler installation.   The muffler sets
to the side of the wedge oil pan but mostly it is below the oil pan.
The clearance to the oil pan is about 1.250 inches.   The radiator
sets to the right side and below.  Rad to muffler clearance is about
5 inches.  The intake plenum, above the radiator is opposite the
muffler.  There is room to shield the pan, plenum and radiator.

The 3 inch square  muffler would be made of .065 304 Stainless.    I
think I will just buy some 3" wide strips and weld it up.   Also, am
considering making the tail part removable so that different options
can be tried should noise be a problem.

The primaries  would be 2 inch round and approximately 22 inches long.

I would appreciate critical comments from anyone.   Thanks ,   Jerry
