i use to want one but they'd get tangled in scrub when wer're clearing, i'm going to make a flang for the base cause if we cover the top it gets in where it slides into the manifold, then we can just throw a can on the top and it'll be fine, i was gonna record it with out the muffler this arvo cause it sounded cammed haha
