source for new muffler for 8V92?
Tom,

A set of blankets is $750 at http://www.atpwrap.com/home.htm

They make nice blankets, I bought the 2 that are manifold to turbo
inlet.

I bought two complete sets for my FC and toter home, a very good investment.
Really keeps the heat and noise out of traveling experience.

source for new muffler for 8V92?
Just finally got finished installing new muffler and u-bend going into
muffler. Auto-Jet provided the muffler at less than 25% of what
Bluebird wanted. I would highly reccommend them.
