Since getting my 169 i have found out that the original muffler is no longer available. The privious owner has installed a quietline muffler, and other than cutting a hole in a perfectly good grill for the outlet did a nice job. My only problem is i don't like the sound. Its way to quiet and it doesnt have a nice tone like the 149. Why cant i put a muffler from a 149 on this? The only answer i have been able to get so far from reading what i could find on the web is its not big enough. It would restrict it to much.
Unless i am not taking everything into consideration here, The only thing i see just by looking is the elbow comming out of the 169 into the muffler does look bigger. The muffler part itself on the 149 is as big around as the one on my Allis-Chalmers CA. And your are running 4 cylinders through it. I really like the way the 149 sounds with its muffler. Thats why i am wondering about putting one like it on the 169. Any ideas or suggestions appriciated 149 muffler ![]() 149 muffler ![]() 169 with quietline muffler ![]() Hole in the grill for the outlet ![]() This elbow does look bigger where it threads into the block. ![]() Other than being longer the muffler part on the CA is same as 149

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
