I'm gonna try and finish this up in the next couple weeks. I have mine gutted and ready for re-assembly. The problem I ran into is that my band saw blade kept coming off the pulleys, and I busted all my sawzall blades..

I used a torch to cut out most of the insides of the muffler, and that was probably a heck of a lot easier than anything else. That perforated metal inside cuts pretty easy with a torch. I had a really fine tip on my torch (a brazing tip I believe) that worked great.

Once I get the proper technology to clean up and cut the pipes inside the muffler and whatnot, reassembly should be a lot easier than disassembly, because once everything is modified how I want it, it will just be a matter of welding up the pipes on the inside.

I think having a real small sabre saw would be pretty useful too.
