The oversize stacks kinda bug me even though I run one myself, can't wait to see how those come out!! Randy They're still going to be fairly tall. one of the reasons I like to run stacks on my tractors is the practicality of getting the exhaust up and out of my face. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even Frank’s stack seems to allow a lightheadedness after some run time. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As you can well imagine our level of extreme maturity dictated that we needed to hold a muffler up to our faces and yell in and out of them to see what the sound decrease would be. They definitely produce a deep tone. I'm looking forward to hearing what they sound like on the engine... great minds think alike! Our minds do too EB! That is how I test all my exhaust pipes and mufflers! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stormin 9,981 #655 Posted June 13, 2020 Biggest problem with stacks is tree's. Only tractor I have with a stack is the Black Horse. No trees in fields. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We plenty of trees of course. We also have plenty of tree cutting utensils. Cinnamon's stack is about my height so if I can't walk under anything in the forest paths we cut it. Colossus will be just a bit taller. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dont forget to make popping and revving sounds to get the full spectrum of tones. Love that Kemp muffler by the way, and REALLY dig those baby glass packs ya found @ebinmaine!!! 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
