In the Experimental world, mufflers are typically left off since the are not
required, and are both expensive, and heavy. I run open headers on the O-200
on my KR. The prop typically makes as much or more noise than the exhaust. I
chose to put my $$ into noise cancelling headsets rather
FWIW my Jabiru (on Avid Mk4) had a full muffler. Ran quiet but of course was
designed for having a muffler.

I think those are relatively rare in the Experimental world (in the US,
at least). I once installed some "silencers" inside the 1.5" exhaust
pipes on the Corvair (think VW Beetle tailpipe), just before flying to
OSH one year.
Does anyone have a muffler on thier engine?

Is it worth 2 pounds of additional weight to put a muffler on a Continental A
65? ?
I would probably use a 12 inch Muffler section that weighs 2 pounds each ? 2. ?
