Ed: I have designed (in the windmills of my mind)
a square muffler,
spiraling interior baffling, to sit under heat
baffling' insulating
sheetunder a little deeper, welded up aluminum oil
pan' all sitting
on motor
mount, since it is for amphibian pusher where
engine can sit a
little higher
than rvs, etc..  If someobdy like PL doesn't draw
us up one, I will
have to
actually commit it to paper and/or just weld it up
and go from
there with
photos, one of these days.

When a rotary muffler's internals get spit out
through a pusher prop, things can get very exciting
very fast.
