did this a while back, opened up the factory port to about .750" & used 1" ID tubing for this single barrel stubby. It, along with the dual port front cover is an awesome combo & it sounds darn good.

I gotta jump in here and say a couple things. First, I've conversed with ADMO quite a bit off-line. That's a good dude, he just ain't used to you mfer's and your special recipe of azzhole. Second, soup cans ain't for chainsaw mufflers

That's it. Carry on. And GFY.

I have a tig rig in the garage, it is also my stick machine which is the way it generally stays set up.
I braze mufflers because I can be done in the time it takes to swap processes, which is less than 5 minutes.

Still solid at 1200 degrees Fahrenheit, silver solder or brazing alloy has more than enough strength for a muffler mod, unless your muffler is beginning to glow red, you’re still at full strength.

45% silver with white brazing flux for the initial tinning and brazing (most of the time all you need), 15% silver once you have already made a bond to the base metal. 15% has a much wider liquidous range and allows you to build and fill large gaps by controlling your heat.

I have yet to try tig brazing which Al swears by, mostly because I’m a stubborn butthead that doesn’t like to try new things.
Gas welding with old coat hanger ain't bad if your good at it. Oxygen added torch is best for that. Snapon 120v mig is quick and efficient for myself most times. Might look for thinner wire under 0.028
0.020 would be nice.

That’s where all the coat hangers went.

My buddy tried using a coat hanger but the plastic kept running off when it melted!:rolleyes: You know you’re old when you know they used to make metal coat hangers.
