Since it is a blizzard here today I spent the morning in the shop with my son and the 240u. After 3 days of PB Blaster treatments and wiggling them the bolts for U-pipe on top of the manifold came right out. A wire brush on a cordless drill cleaned out the carbon build-up from the threads inside the manifold and I threaded in the 1 1/2 inch pipe no problem. To top it off the muffler (which was new) from the underslung system was the same one needed for the vertical configuration! Topped it off with a -flapper- and cut the hole in the hood with the new $25 holesaw blade and all was well, not a single hitch in the plan.

We used a 1,000 watt ZeroStart brand, 5/8 inch heater hose, a couple hose barbs and done. Plumbed it from the block drain on the left side and up over the top to the 1/2 inch tee where the temp sensor is threaded in.
This almost makes up for the loader bracket that broke last night when plowing snow, now need to go fix that and get back after the rest of the yard and get some cornstalk bales moved for the calves.
