If there is interest, I will provide, first come first served, with barn cleaner chain cut to length for turbulators for the Tarm. This is what I have been using since Jan 2008. These are over-sized links which fit the 3" Tarm firetubes with good clearance all the way round. I'm not looking to make money on these, but I do need to charge a small amount for my time in cutting the chain and packaging for shipment. Shipping would be at cost, hopefully PO flat rate box. I will provide more info, if there is sufficient interest.

I apologize if this is regarded as a "sale" plug; it's not intended to be. I have quite a length of chain which is of no other use to me, and these do work very well.

Jim-- check your PM box please; I send you a couple of questions but I may be interested in some of this chain for an experiment. Thanks
 
Please PM me if any interest. Happy New Year!
 
Jim,

Thanks to you, my turbulators are now in place. Thank you for the tip & photos!

I used 18" lengths of 1/2" chain from a local industrial supply surplus store and have them suspended from 5/8" bolts. They've only been in place for a few hours, so I'll have to give it some time before I can tell how much they help.
