Looks great, little cleaner then my piece together.

How long does it take to get up to temp (just curious is all).

Heres a pic of my creation and yes the truck is more then a few feet away.

Hi Quint,I haven't timed it yet,but pretty quick...what kind of blower is that youre using?Looks like 1900 degrees on your meter..and they don't have to be purty to get the job done :)

The blower is actually one of the duct vent boosting fans. I wouldnt use it on anything bigger then what I have but it seems to work alright. For $26 I cant complain. I could run more efficiently I think if I had a real blower since I could close up the front some. The little guy doesnt push very well so closing up the front actually causes temps to go down.

The meter is to the right of my brick I have in it so on that side it gets to about 1950f or so, on the other side it usually hits about 2200f or so. Run about 2 or 3 lbs pressure on the regulator.
