For anyone who was interested in the baffle, I got my hands on a complete Kirby muffler intact that's in very good condition. I managed to pick up a model 38 SB edger with a Kirby engine. My baffle design was very close so I'm going to replicate a new one exact to the original and swap the original into my restored engine. I can't believe I found a model 38 with a Kirby to match my model 45 Kirby. Can't wait to get stuck in to the next restoration once I finish the model 45. This engine starts first pull and looks beautiful for its age, I'm almost scared to touch it and wonder if I should leave it original and just wash it down. When I get back home from holidays I will take measurements of the baffle and draw it all out for reference for anyone else who wants to make one.
