well over the course of the year my stove apparently settled in one corner, thus making my pan not exactly level. it looks about 1/8" off...I've tried shimming it but the whole side of the stove lifts vs that one corner. How will this impact my continuous flow divided pan? Do I need to redo the whole thing with frozen ground on the eve of the season?

You are going to need to get it level my sugar has wood floor and sits on block pillars and I have to check for level before each boil because as the frost comes out of the ground the building shifts and I have had it shift on me during a boil and saw the syrup puddle in an area away from the drain and there was nothing I could do until everything cooled down and I was able to relevel it.

I don't know how deep you run your pans, but I doubt 1/8 inch will even be noticeable. I just took a 1/2 inch bow out of my rail. For the last couple years my 4' back pan has been that far out with no problems. I just made sure syrup pan was level and made syrup.
