Evolution Gas Engines
Has anyone experience with the Evolution Gas Engines from Horizon Hobby? I'm considering the 26GT version for a Pacific Aeromodel's Tiger Moth. Also, none of the pictures I can find of the engine show its muffler. Does anyone know what the muffler looks like? Would it fit in the Tiger Moth's cowl without chopping exceptionally unsightly holes in the cowl?

It is a remarked MVVS. The 1.6 is a very user friendly engine. They do not come with a muffler, you will have to get an aftermarket one.

1) 3298 /26 Silencer compact for MVVS 1.60 (the dustbin silencer, very compact, large power loss)
2) 3270 a roomy three chamber side muffler, which has amazingly good power, just slightly short of:
3) 3266 Tuned pipe for MVVS 1.60 (needs separate header)
