Default Differences in Zenoah 445 and GT80

Basically, I need to know if the single cross muffler from the GT 80 will fit the 445. I know that the cylinders have a larger bore, but is the stroke and the porting the same? If so, then I can use the single cross muffler, otherwise, I'll need to modify a pair of cans.

I have used the one piece Bisson muffler on both the 445 and the GT-80. Exactly the same fit across the exhaust ports.

Were would be the best place to order the GT80-Price being the main factor of coarse.

Keep an eye on the ads in the marketplace, the racing guys often buy these up (or win them at sponsored races, I dunno) , and end up selling some. These guys sell them for as little as $550, new in the box. Another option would be to contact Ralph Cunningham at 928 635 2455, he can either hook you up with someone selling one, or can fix you up an excellent used one.

Here is some additional information to help you out:

The GT80 is most popular in racing, check out their website here: http://www.usrainfo.org
They have their own forum located here: http://www.usrainfo.org/forums/ikonboard.cgi
Within that forum, there is link for 'for sale items' : http://www.usrainfo.org/forums/ikonboard.cgi

...I don't think this is information that RCU will moderate and remove, but if so, I'll PM the info to you.
