So I'm getting ready to up grade to a new 2X6 leader with max flu pan and patriot syrup pan and building a gasification arch. Looking for input on weather to go with raises or combo flu pan? And 4' flu and 24" syrup or 42" flu and 30" syrup pan. Also how tall is the raises flu from the top of the arch rails on the raised and combo flu pans.

Any help would be appreciated

I'd strongly recommend a 2x8. Get the biggest flue pan you can, no matter what size rig you get, but 2x8s don't cost much more money, don't burn much more wood, but cook more sap faster. It'll be worth more when you sell it for your next upgrade too.
