Default Heat muff - 180 deg out
RV8 - IO-360-A1B6 horizontal induction.

Supplied heat muff has inlet and outlet on same side. I seem to remember a heat muff that had the inlet and outlet 180 out to each other or a movable outlet port.

Anybody know a source for this?

Robbins Wing in Denver. They will make a muff to match your spec for $10 over the muff retail. They make the muffs that come with a Vetterman exhaust, I believe. I needed a unique configuration for my second muff and they are great to work with.

Van's sells a 90-degree adaptor that I used to allow duct flexibility.
