Sorry it's been a week. I cut the factory support off the rusted out factory muffler and welded it to the side of the Ford/Ferguson muffler. The new muffler sits entirely under the hood just like the factory one did. I do have a little stack that comes up on the other side of the machine for fun, but otherwise it's fairly hidden. My stack clamps on to the muffler outlet, so if it got bumped it could at least rotate out of the way if I was lucky. I don't have any low branches, so damage to it would have to be my fault in the garage... My reason for the VW part conversion was because I couldn't find a muffler to use where the exhaust entered from the side, so I settled on re-routing it to use a muffler that would fit under the hood. I had hoped to spin the factory elbow, but it was so rusted in that none of my tricks got it out, and I eventually cracked it on accident and had to chisel it out and start from scratch.
