Since LF Industries of Leola, PA never replied to my sponsorship request for a Hell Fire v4.0 Racing Super Turbo muffler, I had to go back to the drawing board.

So, I have cut up, gutted and cleaned out what was left of an XB9 muffler.
The goal is basically to make a homage to the ever so popular Drummer with dual exhaust outlets.

The question is, what should I wrap the perforated core with?

Stainless steel wool
Or
Ceramic Wool

I found a place that makes exhaust grade versions of both. I know stainless steel wool is the old hot rodders trick and is the material of choice for Porter mufflers which I think sound very nice. However, that technology is getting close to 100! years old and may give the ceramic wool a shot.

Has anyone worked with both? Mike lowery offered to send me a bunch of magnesium chips to pack it with, but said it may run a bit hot? Hmmm...

Ok... discuss. Go!
