Dear Paul
  I would be interested in building the muffler you have pictured. If you
could send me a simple drawing of what you have in
mind with some dim. on it I would make up a proto type
to run on your dyno for cost. I would need a exhaust flange. The design
looks like it could tame the sound of the rotary. Before we
would build one could you run the idea past some of your engineer
friends to get some feed back before we start cutting metal. Looking to hear from you.

I'll work on the drawing. Got any Inconel lying around?
Mark hit on the big problem of differential heat expansion.
So I think we need to let the inner tube float fore and aft
while supporting it radially (s?).

Anybody have a Racing Beat flange they want to donate to the project?
Send it to Ed.

Hey Paul, I have a flange that I cut into 2 pieces or rings. I didnt  like the way it was
made and by cutting it made it a little lighter. If you want that Ill send it to you.It is
for second gen. I dont need it. I thought I was going to use it but I went for the HKS cast
manifold for my turbo unstead.
