Here is the new superheater in all of it's glory. It has been blacksmithed out of 1/2" schedule 40 stainless steel pipe. The shape is rather odd but it will provide over seven of pipe exposed to the flame. I choose 1/2" pipe because, although it is a tighter fit in the burner pan, it won't pose any line restriction from the throttle to the engine. This should add up to a reasonable performance gain and a lot more reliability over the old 3/8" welded tube unit.
