Default OS .55AX 90Degree muffler adapter

Hi:

There are many of us who received there 55AX over the weekend. Major question, what's the deal with the wording of ads saying 90 degree muffler adapter. We are all looking for adapter like the 1.20AX. Many on RCU want to know what's up (adapters-no need for expensive aftermarket mufflers). Missing part or goof in advertising? For the price it should be there. I'm not angry, just puzzled. BTW had .55 on test stand yesterday to break in. WOW fantastic engine. I have 2 of them.

FromTower ad AND other dealers!!

NOTES FROM OUR TECH DEPARTMENT
This is the O.S. Max 55 AX ABL Aircraft Engine with Muffler.

**Additional Technical Info Will Be Added When It Becomes Available.**

FEATURES: Same mounting dimensions as the O.S. Max 46 AX
Advanced Bi-Metallic Liner process uses a double layer of plating
material rather than one thick layer. This helps the metal bond to
the cylinder and makes the plating more durable. Also, the plating
process is more consistent, resulting in a more precise fit between
piston and sleeve for better compression and longer life.
Angular head design offers increased surface area for better cooling
Muffler includes straight and 90° adapters-no need for expensive
aftermarket mufflers
Ball bearing-supported crankshaft
40J carburetor with diagonally placed needle valve eliminating remote
needle valve placement
Two year limited warranty
