I'm not impressed with Vans heat muff as supplied in the
firewall forward kit - has anyone used an alternative ? How
about the "Homebuilders Heat Muff 9" in Spruce's catalog ?

Another one to look at is Larry Vetterman - I got his crossover exhaust with mufflers - the heater boxes are part of the mufflers - you can see the mufflers at Aircraft Exhaust technologies (built for the vetterman kits). Rumour has it that they really pump out the heat - but I haven't flown yet.

I'm guessing that you had a 912S/914 as you have those parts for sale....
What are you putting in now? More oooomph? Trying to get to the VNE?
Curious as someone else mentioned a Jabiru 6....

Hmm, my understanding is that its Robbins that supplies the
ones that come in Vans kits - its that sketchy
end-cap-rod-pipe-clamp-slip-joint-thingemy that bugs me ...

And Mr Vetterman(?) generously offered to take my standard
straight pipes (disconnect at the ball joint) and swap them out
for the pipes with the combo muffler/heater - now I get dual
heat source and a quieter airplane.
