Hi folks
The two pipe in - two pipe out design of the Healey muffler is fairly uncommon as far as I know. But then, I don't know a lot about muffler design (other than the basics) and was wondering if anyone out there in BCFland knows where I might find a schematic or working drawing of the innards of one of these things. I'm just curious really as to how this muffler was intended to function. Does it use the characteristic perforated tubes, is it also glass packed, does it act as a resonator, etc.? It's one of the few subsystems on the car that one cannot take apart to see what's inside.
As always, thanks for the insight and advice.
