He is averaging about right and doing better than a lot of folks. There are a couple mpg threads you can check out. Your not going to gain anything through the exhaust.

He wasn't hard headed, he was just smart.

Again, thank you to all that responded. Like I said in my original post. Every time this question is asked, it turns into a cat back discussion. (that means you Grandpa). Thank you to those that stayed on topic.

No worries Grampa. No Kayak, I still haven't had the opportunity. Little leary, but if I remove the muffler and don't like it, it will be an easy fix.

You can unhook the muffler without even removing it and the tailpipe from the hangers. I did this just to see what it sounded like. You can listen to as many as you want on YouTube, but it's just not like listening to it in person.

I also found this from the ask an engineer thread on here. Name:  photo935.jpg
