Muffler

 

 

 

 

A bespoke muffler was required for the unique mechanics. The header from an original Hirobo muffle was removed and glued to a combination of balsa, cardboard roll, and brass tube to make a dummy muffler. Making a dummy muffler like this makes it easier for a machine shop to fabricate the real thing.
