GGB muffler inserts

Post by Seanik »

The 318's on my 1988 28" M express seem to be getting louder under the hardtop. I thought about replacing the veritone mufflers but looks way to difficult to access them, probably lifting the deck to do the job right. I found these as an alternative, GGB Inserts, they are attached SS rings that are inserted into the transom exhaust tube, not supposed to create back pressure or lower efficiency. I called the manufacturer in Canada to get size recommendations and after a long phone conversation I am quite confident they will work and ordered a set. I will report on the inserts after the spring launch. Anyone with experience on these inserts or comments welcomed.

Did you get them installed? When you do take a video so we can see how they sound. I may be pulling my mufflers soon. Real interested.... :mrgreen:

Bringing this older thread back up. Our 1973 single express is WAY louder than our 32 twin sedan. I’d like to quiet down ‘Easy Does It’ so that I can hear my wonderful wife and others aboard when cruising at 12-15mph. Anyone have input on these devices that were talked about? Do they work? Or, are there recommendations for replacement mufflers that would be quieter?
