    I drew up the rough plans for the duct work i still need to know the CFM and the btu's to run it through a Duct-u-lator.

    I musta junked about 50 of them backbreakers way back when. Most were converted from coal, to oil and then to gas. There is about 3-4 inches of sand on top of that bonnet.
