hi

trying to go from a 2x3 divided with perheater pan barrel type outfit to an oil tank style with 2 pans useing my current pan and getting another to fill in the gap and i have some questions

how long, deep, high a firebox?

with the longer run of hot gases what is a good distance between the bottom of the pan and the top of the insulation beyond the fire box? sloped all the way? sharp slope that narrow for most of the distance?

is there an aspect or ratio as to the area of the smoke exit at the back of the stove and the size of the round stack?

thanks for any help
