Phils........No my doesn't have a heat deflector, just 1 1/4 square exhaust pipe pointing down.

Toolz.......I agree a good header system would rock.

I got around the exhaust direction by welding another short piece of 1 1/4 box steel to the exhaust pipe exiting out to the rear of the machine.

Tricker,
Nice mod, I will be doing the same soon. Did you weld the piece directly onto the stock exhaust can?

Also, how's that thermo coupler problem? Is the tractor back in action?

<font color="blue"> Too bad they don't fit a really quiet Honda in there... all you'd hear then is the purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr and the PT whine.

<font color="red"> I have a Hustler FasTrac with a 20hp Honda engine. It is a sweet runner, but cost $500 more than the same FasTrac with a 20hp Kohler!! How many PT buyers would 'whine' about paying over $500 more for a little extra quiet?? </font> /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

Tim, I welded directly to the factory exhaust at a 90 degree angle and yes, the thermo coupler fixed the problem. PT is running like a top /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
