I was doing some searching on cabin heat and came across a post were you mentioned adding another "Heat Muff" to your Rocket. Pls excuse, but what is that?? I also have a Rocket. We fly in full ski clothing in the winter.. It's freaking cold.

I have engine uncowled checking everything over before my trip to Florida Friday. I took some pictures on how I keep my Rocket more comfortable in the winter.
Closed cell foam in all vents, muffler wrap sealing the primary heat muff around the exhaust pipes (also protects the exhaust from metal on metal wear), secondary heat muff at waste gate, rubber block off over half the oil cooler, inflatable door seal, Styrofoam on all surfaces of baggage compartment to tail cone.

awesome!! Thank you for spending the time. I'll be spending some time in the hanger this week. Looks like I need to fly to Mpls the end of the week. The FBO is wonderful there. They let me keep my plane in the heated hanger when it is there. But, it has always been a chilly ride each way. I usually have to much sh*t/luggage in the back. Doubles as insulation.
