Default Slimline 4-Stroke Muffler?

I didn't know Bisson made a muffler for a 4-Stroke. I thought their mufflers were all Pitts style for 2-strokes.

Why not use the stock muffler? Certainly you can reposition it to effectively be out of the way?
I guess I could, but as the engine will be on it's side rather than inverted, I just feel the muffler will be hard to position and need more of the cowl cut away.

If I go with this Slimline muffler, it exhausts straight down behind the engine and should not require much cowl cutting and also make it easier to replace and remove the cowl after it is mounted.

I always hated having to remove the muffler from my OS FS-70 II in my WM P-51 whenever I wanted to remove the cowl.
