    Garry is right!

    The 1949 does not have the relief exhaust valve on the side of the exhaust tube. It has multiple holes drilled on the back of the exhaust tube. I happen to like that design and I"ve had several PO’s. That design, if you do a lot of idling, keeps exhaust smoke off the transom and tends to be a little quieter at idle.
