Betsy is running nicely. Only problem, her muffler fell off. Ha! Didn't know she could backfire like that. Made her stop. I crawled under and shoved the two parts together to get home. Now I need to buy a new muffler. Or, do I?[/QUOTE]

Not necessarily, as long as the pipe or the side of the muffler didn't split or spit the guts out somewhere you should be fine.

Make sure the exhaust flange to manifold line up straight.
