Glad you found the problem without doing any damage to the engine. Years ago I needed a new muffler for my old 65 Dodge 1-1/2 ton truck. The auto parts place did not have the right muffler for my truck,but was willing to dig through the parts book untill we found somthing that had the right in/out pipe sizes. The muffler we found fit and the truck seemed to run well unloaded,but the first load of grain I hauled shower I had a problem. The truck had no power and ran hot. I nursed it along that busy harvest day and fixed it the next morning. Like yours,mine had a very restrictive baffle inside that I cut out. The truck ran fine after that,but the damage was done,I cracked both exhaust manifolds from excess heat. :(
