No, Yvon, I have not yet done that.  I plan on doing my annual

this month and will pull the exhaust off and check on the condition

whether I even still have inserts) of the inserts.
I'll let you know what I find.

I am currently considering a two input/exhaust spintech muffler

similar to

the one Tracy Crook flys (with one input/exhaust) out of 304 rather

than the

321.  But, I need to determine how I will hang that muffler before I

spend

$245 on one.

Ed,

I also plan to order a muffler with 2 pipes as input.  Maybe we can save

a buck if we order 2 or more???  Why 304 rather than 321?

Hi Ken,

    Worth looking into.  Reason I specified 304 vice 321 is based on Tracy's
results thus far, there is no question that 321 will work.  But, it is more
expensive and I have had good results with 304. My muffler would be around
32" from my exhaust port, so temp shouldn't be a problem.   IF 304 does
work - then a cheaper (by almost $100) muffler might be worthwhile.  I try
not to duplicate what Tracy does just to provide another data point.  If the
two (or more) of us going in together would reduce the price to the range I
was quoted for the 304 then I'd be willing to go 321.
