you comming over tonight glenn?when did you move in next door?.
sounds ok but a little like it has a week cylinder, but it's a small motor(I presume)& that type of exhauset might produce that type of sound.I dont know what mine sounds like, Im sofar ahead of the sound I cant hear it.
hope you find what you want.I think it,s the muffled but independent paired sound your after,witch does sound great if done right.good cam&good cr help with the sound.

Now if I only had an extra $175,000 laying around, I would put one of those 4-CAMMERS in my Oval together with a Speedster transmission and it would - go go go!!!!

Doesn't Speedwell USA make the Sebring Exhausts now for 36hp????

I recall I read it somewhere that they take a long time to make, each is a special order, but they do cost UNDER $500! from what I remember seeing, cheaper than the repro 4-tip mufflers their making now for 36hp!

Hello-

The good news is that the Speedwell USA exhausts are reputed to cost only a few hundred USD. The bad news is that the wait list is very long.

If I ever decide to have a sebring style exhaust made, I'll have it looks like this:

I have a really rare Blaupunkt radio for my Oval......but I might not use it either if I can get the Motor/Exhaust set up just the right way too someday??? Very Happy

An ORIGINAL Porsche 547 Sebring exhaust could finance a small house, I wouldn't cut it up if I were you, sell it to a guy who really needs it, like someone who's rebuilding a 4 cam motor, those motors cost over $75,000 to rebuild, I can imagine an original Porsche Parts Sebring exhaust would cost into the 5 figures easy......

And I heard Ray's muffers are less than $500, so if I had your ORIGINAL one that would have be sold already!!!!

Here's my Speedwell exhaust that Ray built for me recently. I couldn't be happier with it! Fit and finish is great, It's the best fitting exhaust I've ever owned, including a full A-1 on my last engine. And I love the sound. Ray does excellent work!
