Out here, we all seem to prefer using the Muck pipe with a larger sleeve welded on to overlap the header. The CMB seems to love the Muck pipe and the conclusion amongst R/CU racers is that it offers the best combination of low and top end. On a cool raceday, like last weekend, I was making mondo power with it set to 10 5/8 inches from the back of the head, turning a cut 460/3 prop. I could have gone shorter, for more top end, but when I did, the midrange response was starting to go away. I didn’t really touch a plug all weekend long. This is a very happy set up for the CMB.
Good luck!
