Exhaust

Re: Exhaust

I'm in the middle of my annual right now. After going through the painful removal of my heat muff I was blessed with a hole in my exhaust. After experiencing what everybody else had talked about, I called Terry for the paperwork and then Doug at the Luscombe foundation. I bought everything through the foundation and even had Doug mount the baffles and muffs for me. It seemed like a lot money, but since my exhaust and muff where toast anyway, it really wasn't much difference to upgrade.

Re: Exhaust

Well sounds like a nice add on. All kinds of room for activities. I was looking at pictures of one on Barnstormers thats for sale and noticed it had exhaust on the pilot side. Cant quite tell if its on both sides.

Re: Exhaust

I love mine. Lots more room in the back. Saves time dealing with all those screws for an annual. I always had a couple on the old one that where hard to get to.

Re: Exhaust

There are dual exhaust options through STCs. The sound is great. You should hear Chuck's. He has a Luscombe exhaust on his I think. Makes working on the back of the engine WAY EASIER. The original Taylorcraft exhaust is really not a very good design.

Re: Exhaust

Just one, on that side? Mine has DUALS, like a Camaro V8. Chuckle.

If I remember correctly the exhaust on an A65 exits the cowling on the co-pilots side of a taylorcraft. If you see a 46 Taylorcraft BC12-D A65 with what looks like the exhaust coming out of the pilots side what does that mean? Some type of aftermarket homemade flamboozal stuff?
