These look really well made :)
Where could they be ordered from?

Funny, it looks a lot like the lugs Fox cast onto many 35 cases.  They were kind of weak though.  This is much beefier.

The basic idea is that the muffler bears against the exhaust stack and does not put stress on the case like a standard strap on.  Fox marketed a similar set up for the Fox model (50?) which had  square backsides on the exhaust stack.
