That heater is a piece of crap I know two people that have bought them and they are not long lived, I made a better one for my Firestar out of Stainless steel you can see pic's of it in the Photoshare and it will fit in a small area and it works great

Okay you guys are giving me some good ideas. Thanks Ellery, I looked at your pictures and they helped as well as some another sent to me.
Heres what the 503 installation looks like in my kitfox. Anyone with more ideas or comments I would like to hear/see them.

Thanks to the ideas sent to me I built the heater and tested it today. I just put a restrictor plate on the hot air duct and 2" scat hose through the firewall between my feet. It's a 10 big dogs breath heater. The CHT's behaved just fine. I like things simple so there are no contrlos, just put the restrictor plate on for the winter and take it off for the summer. I could make a couple different sized restrictor plates for when it gets real cold I guess. ground adjustable only. Pictures attached.

Tom,
If you did it the way that I think you did then all you will have to do is make a alum fitting that goes through the firewall with a swing gate inside the fitting to either open or close the gate. Attaching your scat tubing to the new fitting.
