Cut the stacks to whatever length is needed. Wont hurt anything. If you cut them real short, it will effect the sound.

The smoke coil is up inside the can. You can cut the stacks to whatever length you need. Shorter means louder, which is not ALL bad.

We don't have noise restrictions at my field. I asked one day and a guy gave me a funny look.

"NOISE RESTRICTIONS!!!?? I don't think so. Not here buddy."
