OK, I can see this is going nowhere. So I guess I'll have to tell you. This is what came out of my new HP-2 muffler after a short 20 minute flight. What you saw in the previous picture was the packing material MELTING and dripping out the end of the muffler. In the second picture, you can see it oozing out of the little holes in the intermediate housing. I was expecting it to "blow out" eventually, but I wasn't expecting it to melt and run out the tailpipe. This just blows my mind. Where to go from here??? Maybe I should replace the packing with titanium shavings, or lithium crystals.
