Hi everyone,

I changed the tranny fluid in Billy Bones today.
No, I did not put my fancy Redline MT90 in there,
but I did use generic GL-4.  I've got a leak
and I aim to repair it before I put in my
Redline (parts ordered today).  However, while
under there I decided that my muffler was bad -
 those holes were a dead giveaway.  How did
I miss them when I had the engine out??? So
now I have the muffler and catalytic converter
off.  I purchased a catalytic converter at
O'Reilly's, but their muffler is more than
about 5 and 1/2 inches in diameter, meaning it
won't fit my hangers.

Who sells a muffler that will not only bolt
up, but which will alsol fit the brackets?

Any good prices out there?

Dang, I got ole Billy running but I've yet to
leave the driveway with him because of one
thing or the other.  I'm afraid to run him
without a muffler.  Don't want to burn something
up.
