Default Advice OS 61 FX pitts style muffler?

Today I lost the rear end of my FX 61 stock muffler while I was flying mi Hog Bipe, to make a long story short engine quits-glide as much as I could-no big damage only a hole in the covering apparently where the muffler hit the wing; I would like to replace the stock muffler with a pitts style one and install it sideway in a new cowled plane I'm building; any advice in witch pitts muffler should I buy (Slimline, bisson, etc)?

Also when I was browsing towerhobbies I saw this http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXEHC5&P=K is a rear end for a GMS 61, any idea if this will work?

I have been using the Slimline on my 61fx and really like it. This is one of my best running engines I own, I just need a plane to put it on. I've been thinking about using it on an AstroHog, but not sure if that would be enough power.
