What is this Muffler from?

[RARECRX]

I found this muffler and was just wondering what it belonged to.. I know possibly a Tecumseh powered something, but have no clue as to what.? My wife almost threw it out while cleaning the garage, but trusted her better judgment .. It is an actual tip on it and is in darn good shape, not a ding in it. I can't believe I never made use of it.

Thanks..

Looks like for a HS50 5HP Tecumseh engine.

it's a Taylor (model 200?) spark arrestor, and pretty rare. you're lucky you didn't throw it out!

Thank You! I scraped the paint off and sure enough it says "Model 200 screen type" on it.

No, I contacted OldMiniBikes member "metal man" to custom fabricate one to my specs. He did a great job for a very reasonable price. This is going on my 5HP Tec for my Sears Roper Project..http://www.oldminibikes.com/forum/project-logs/50129-sears-roper-project.html

It bolts right on to the engine and accepts a 3/4" muffler.
