Ok,
I was wondering about expansion mufflers or expansion chambers.
If an engine is a 66 cc,
what is the formula for how big the expansion chamber needs to be?

The exhaust explosion is way bigger than 66 cc right?

So I guess first off,
what is the actual displacement of the 66 cc engine?

then second,
what is the equation for exhaust displacement?


It seems that alot of the mailorder kits were made for the 49 cc engine,
so its actually not optimizing the bigger engine.
Was thinking of making one just for kicks.

Thanks alot guys.

Google Gordon Jennings or Graham Bell

Its all there.

There is also software that calculates pipe dimensions.

You will need some good data to input though.

Like exhaust temperature, fuel type, ect.

Greetings guys..

Been reading to learn what not to do as I prepare for my first buy/build...

Thanks for all the help so far! Your sharing has educated this old man more than I could express...

As for the stuff by Jennings and Bell, I have a couple of links I can share.

And

Hope this helps!
