A tractor type muffler is large enough to not lose power and a good
idea. You can get a used one or make one yourself. You can also
use one for the air intake to the box, the cellar situation is a bit

You need to control air temperature as well. As for vibration there are rubber

such as air conditioning packages. Each square inch supports a certain weight
