[Public-list] Original Muffler

[George Dinwiddie]

David,

I don't know what to suggest.  If you make an exhaust out of pipe, 
you'll also need a waterlift muffler.  If you make a standpipe exhaust, 
it'll fit where the current one is.  Do you have the skills to solder a 
standpipe together?  If not, building one will probably be more 
expensive than buying the waterlift.
