If ya put some heat to the crimp and take a small screwdriver. You can work the crimp up.
If ya work slow and keep it hot. There not to bad.
Just walk around the edge of it until it falls apart.
Then gut and put it back together. Heat and fold the crimp back down.

I tried to heat it up with a mapp torch and it wouldn't budge for me, but that was a Huztl muffler not oem. Gave up eventually and drilled a hole.

Today we managed to get a big tent up in high winds right next to the coast. We got lucky and finished the job before a brief rain came down. I tried to get a pic of some huge hardwoods in the distance.

After work I noodled some logs and hand split them. The chickens and ducks love eating the wood bugs.

Homework and got the lawn mowed. Pretty dull day for me. Here's a pic of the finished muff on the 361. Still need to find some different screws for it though.

Pull wrenches again and sat on the exivater for an hour and finished painting a ceiling after I lowered the fan, then I smoked a cigar and called it a day in front of the tv.

Some good high heat paint will make it look real good blended in.
