muffler for enya 40ss

[Chris Belcher]

I have a new enya40ss (plain bearing) and need a lighter muffler. The stock one is a tank. This motor is a little heavy to begin with. Is anyone still making cnc tubes?

Randy Smith at Aero Products carried them at one time, but not sure now.

Randy Smith...do you have any in stock?

I am not sure, but I think Randy is at the NATS and may not see this message for a while.  You better call him any way: www.aeroproduct.net

MACs product makes a 1.5Oz C/L muffler , but you have to use an adapter.  MACS adapter muffler P/N 6404 and adapter P/N 6438 http://www.macspro.com/onepiece.asp

Perhaps you can drill an tap the the Adapter muffler it self to fit the Enya SS40.

The other possible solution is to use a Macs Header for Enya SS40 (P/N 2430), no need for the engine adapter, then you just have to glue a Hobbico exhaust deflector (P/N  HCAP2175) at the end with JB weld. The deflector fit in perfectly. I have done that and it works quite well. Just make sure you sit the header straight up so the glue does not run to the sides or down inside. Although the JB WELD will not glue the silicone it will mold perfectly around the deflector grooves and it will seal and hold the deflector in place. It would be better if you can machine an aluminum plug for the end of the Header.

If you are not fully familiar with this engine just ask for some input and help. Some Enya SS40 comes very tight from Factory and it can take a long time to break in if you do not have the proper technique. If you try to fly a tight engine without fully break in, the engine can stop with no waring.

thanks Martin...yeah forgot it was nats time. Macs it is unless randy gets back to me soon.

Randy´s tube muffler is the best option. I suggest you wait and see if he still has some in stock, if not then go with MAC.

Kevin has two GMS engines,  a .32 and a .47.  These aren't made anymore but came as RC only from China.  They were dirt cheap but built like a tank and should last forever.  Jim Lee converted both to CL but since these are ball bearing they are on the heavy side.  The stock mufflers weigh half as much as the engine itself.  Hence Jim made nifty tongue mufflers for them-  20 something each.  I'm sure he can make the muffler you need.  Think I'll ask him to make me some of these for my Enya .45s and a different header/ adapter for my rear exhaust Retro .76.  Give him a few days to get back home and settled from the Nats and see what he can do.

Happen to have the .47 and the mufflers here.

...the muffler are the same except the .47 gets more holes.
