Generator exhaust

[j.lawrence]

Hey Mike, that is what I was thinking as well. From the manifold on the Perkins to the threaded portion is all cast iron. It has all the original blanket on it, so without taking that off, I am not sure how many sections it is made of. The threaded end looks to be one and one half inch pipe thread and is cast iron as well. When the tray is closed there are about two inches between the threaded end and the flared part that connects to standard exhaust pipe. Though the flare and into the pipe looks to be about ten inches before the pipe bends upward.
Everything from the flare to the rear, and the manifold to the cast iron pipe thread appears to be original equipment. The unit only has 516 hours on it and there are only 50,000 miles on the coach. It spent most of it's life in interior storage with very little use.
It seems to me too, that a section of pipe threaded onto the iron and then sliding into the flare was the way it must have been built.
What do you think? How far into the flare and how tight should it fit?
