John,
Me thinks your project will have the correct bottom line. You have been willing to put it all out there for all to see and follow the trial and error process. Pehaps soon you will have a great answer concerning to more or not to move the muffler. My trial required too much length in the pipe to relocate the muffler. The box was used in a Factory Genset Compartment. The compartment was on the passenger side, requiring a double back. 36" total piping, giving off lot's of heat. Nother thing. I used water/gas 3/4" pipe with 90 degree L's. Creating to much back pressure. Causing ther engine to over heat. Your idea should be a winner. Please give us more info' on your progress in sound lowering. Many are looking for some answers to cool and cut the noise. Do you think more air movement might be necessary?
