Now, you will notice at the top of the picture much better spacing between propeller shaft brace and the cat.

Now, we needed to make some more space for the muffler on the rear end (we knew this from previous measurements), so we had to cut these short extension pieces.

Now, before we take a look at the muffler, I want to show the shop. Here we see some of the prepackaged mufflers ready for shipment along with some glasspacks.

These machines help put small holes into the interior tubes of the mufflers (that reach the fiberglass that is stuck inside the mufflers).

A muffler and some of the interior piping. If you remember the earlier machine that punches the holes into these pipes, well this is the result.
