If you really want a quiet exhaust, here's a link to an article by Tony
Bingelis on the "Swiss Style Muffler":

Is it just me, or does anyone else find it peculiar that he
discusses how it may be difficult to find 80 mm Aluminum tube
(which I sould think most homebuilders could approximate for
themselves using sheet and rivets, with 3" nominal PCV pipe
for a mandrel) but says nothing at all about where to get
glass cloth, though he IS careful to point out that _fiberglass_
cloth won't work.

So, where do you get glass cloth?

For the 80 mm Aluminum tubing, you might contact the local hang glider
dealership. Maybe there's a broken cross bar you can beg or buy. Crossbars
would usually be 7075, if that makes a difference.
