Hi Dave, I used the HKS type 6 muffler / exhaust, if you go to my album I have a number of photos posted if you'd like more let me know.

Mnflyer, is that the STOL wing on your plane? My Avid will have the extended speedwing and I'm really curious on the speeds I would be getting with the HKS.

Did you fab the intakes? Would having the carbs on top cause issues with the cowl?

Hi birddog, the Kitfox has the standard wing, yes the intakes were modified to fit the tight space between the engine and firewall as the up intakes & carbs would not fit in the cowl. I did not do the mod on the intake tubes the folks I bought the engine and engine mount from did. There are several guys with the HKS in the Avid and I know one fellow modified his cowl with small bumps on the top for the carbs and it looks good on his plane I really don't know what kind of speeds they are getting but I believe it better than I'm getting but I think the Avid was a bit faster than the early Kitfox's.
