Hey guys,
Speaking of exhaust, does anyone know the Walker part number for the round EM 
muffler?
I have a buddy looking up one by the size of what I had on there (which is 
rusted through), and if I can find one locally I'd like to get it. Otherwise, 
Clark's C125E is listed at $71, + $13 UPS Ground... delaying my fun by about a 
week.
:-(
Thanks in advance!
Lonzo... working on my oldest, and longest owned Corvair, my '61 Greenbrier.

I too apologize for the speculation but I did put the all-important "I
would assume" in there!!!  This has been interesting reading, both the
speculation and the facts.
