Yeah, I was wondering what I was missing all these years.........never heard of a 9K!!I should have said newer D9H.
If you are talking about a D8K No they didn't.The horizontal muffler came out on the new K models.
I spent a lot of hours on both.
The early 8Ks had a exhaust pipe on top of the motor that came up thru the front of the hood to a vertical muffler.The early D8Ks that I put hands on had the horizontal muffler under the hood. There were plenty of heat problems with cracked heads. I believe a kit came out to change the mount to on top of the hood and then the machines came from the factory with the mufflers mounted on the hood. I worked on a few 9G machines and the only H models I saw had the vertical stacks.
So what did you do with the dust ejector ?I removed the mufflers on both my D8K and D9H and just ran straight pipe out.
