    So after the first solid piece is in. Just start out after with a 1/2" gap and increase from there? My guess would be with them you wouldnt weld them in place until a couple fires are ran threw and you firgure out the best spacing on them. What kind of height you normally mount them at ? 4 to...

It said i needed 23in of opening, so would my 6x16 opening be enough or is that to big? And then with my reverse flow plate that means i need 23in...
