The stack pipe is made of scrap stainless steel swimming pool ladder pipe I polished. Too bad the engine ran "lean" and "blued" the pipe before I had a chance to drill out the main jet in the card to richen it up a bit.

It's also got the insert muffler inside the pipe as I mentioned on the old forum.
just a qes. how come both your tractors have the frontires back wards ?
