Question MK mufflers

Does anyone have an MK muffler? I just got mine from our host and it has a dent on one side. Is that normal? I attached a pic.

The picture looks odd but yes the impression is suppose to be there. It is ther to clear the engine support console. It looks like there are some strange reflections can you provide a better pic so i can verify that its fine. It almost looks like it has been hit in with a ball pein hammer (thats not how they are they are impressioned by us) Take a better shot; I can post some of our stock if you like to compare.

This pic is better and you can see the place where the press mates to the muffler for putting in the contour. I think this is your picture. Please call if I can help in any way

The "dent" has to be there and you can't see any of it installed. I made the first dent for the early model for Ben to see and it looked a lot worse than that. Everything is fine.

"dent" is a good way to describe it....

Cheers

dent not such a good word! Bad bad word! No really Milt put the very first one in there about 2 years ago with a hammer (very masterfully) We soon cam up with a cradle and a press to put them in very consistently they all look the same now
