I believe the one for the O.S. .91FX will fit w/ a little mod. (elongate the bolt holes a little)

Call Tower. Tatone makes a universal that fits you just need to file out the mounting holes a little. They can hook you up.

The Pitts muffler you really want is made by Bisson for the GMS .76 I bought one after a thorough research. Fits up perfectly, has a larger volume and sounds better than the others. About $38 plus shipping. Will have to order direct from Bisson, great guys

Tower will be carrying that BCM Pitts muffler since they picked up the GMS line. It was on order the last time I checked. I have a Tower 75 too and was very happy to see Tower finally will have a Pitts for it.

Thanks guys.Is anyone having problems with this eng? This is my second one I sent the first one back I could not get it to run reliable tower told me it had a scored piston and a bent crank not caused by me and they replaced it with a new one. I bench ran it and put a gal through it but still not sure if I want to mount it yet.

Mine has been utterly reliable. I have no compliants. It does strike me as somewhat silly, though, to put a $38 muffler on a $100 engine. The tatone is less than $20.

Tower Hobbies carries the "CBA/Tatone Pitts Muffler .45-.60" for $22.59, and the "CBA/Tatone Pitts Muffler .90-.91" for $27.99. Which one do you use on the Tower Hobbies .75? The size 60?
