582 Kitfox exhaust support

2 posts in this topic

Posted

I converted my model 1 Kitfox motor mount to a model 4 type mount.

This motor mount has 2 tabs to hang the muffler with springs to the top of the muffler.

The muffler also has 2 bales welded on the bottom to attach springs that I assume go towards the lower firewall.

Since I do not have the Model 4 instructions for the 582 engine installation I need some advice.

Do I use the same springs to support the muffler as is used to hold the Y pipe, elbow and muffler joints together?

How do the lower springs attach to and where on the firewall or engine mount?

If the same springs are used on the lower as the top then some sort of strap must be used.

Thanks Herman

On my mod 1, their is also bottom tabs.

I put a connection tab under the bottom motor mount bolt.

The local snowmachine/motorcycle shop had longer springs

which I needed both for upper and lower connections
