Default Pitts for BME 50

OK gents, I'm new to the gas engine craze but have decided to tackle a new 1/4 scale project and am going w/ a BME 50 for my power. My question is, who makes a good pitts muffler for this engine? I already have the engine w/ stock muffler and wanted to put a pitts on it before I mount it on my 80" H9 CAP.

I've heard that you will have to modify the engine box to make the Pitts fit.

kstinman is correct. I mounted my BME 50 and J&A Pitts muffler last weekend on the H9 80" Cap and had to notch the firewall for the muffler. Not difficult really, with a razor saw, just make sure when you replace wood, that you pin everything and use hardword tri-stock everywhere.
