I'd also appreciate a photo of the hanger system supporting the aft part of the exhaust, and how it interacts with the geometry of the nosegear leg.

We carry an inexpensive and very durable cowl insulation Won't absorb water or oil either. installation photo shown here

Available from us in our Heat, Sound, Paint and Trim section.

Self adhesive and should last the life of the plane. Place a bead of RTV or Proseal around the edges for a tidy, permanent installation.

Many other uses too.

Jim (or anybody), do you happen to have a picture of the left side your exhaust installation? I am trying to trial fit my Vetterman exhaust with mulfflers right now and figure out how to plumb the fuel lines (I have an FT-60 transducer that must mount after the mechanical fuel pump).

Let me look and I'll get right back.
Update: I'm sure I do but they must be on the work computer and I'm at home. Sorry I couldn't help but my fuel tranducer is inside the fuselage. I don't have a heat muff on the left side just a heat shield that wraps part way around the muffler.
