90 forum posts 3 photos	Hi Engineers, Raymond has spotted a mistake in the drawing on page 434 of ME issue 4401 concerning the firehole tube dimension. The outside diameter of the firehole ring is correctly shown as 1.3/4" on the main view of the dummy backhead but on the side view to the right, the drawing shows the outside diameter to be 1.7/16" The 1.7/16" dimension refers to the inside diameter of the firehole tube.
