Update re: sound blanket for genset. The little 6hp genny (12VDC unit) has been operating in my Willard engine room since last summer. No need for a sound blanket! It operates at between 1800-2000 rpms and is reasonably quiet. The little Kubota diesel is belted to a large frame alternator and puts out between 80 to 110 amps under load and does a good job charging the house bank.
