I ran my "new to me" Mason 2 x 3 last night for the first time with the blower running off of a speed control WOW!! Very impressed. I can see where the ramp would be beneficial for sure. I have a wall built with about a 3" gap between the top bricks and the pan. I could see the flames licking the back of the pan when I was adding splits. I had all 4 channels roaring and I calculated about 8 gph........Ramp is on my list for sure.
