1. Look at the grill with the to open, and you will see that there would be a line from where the heat/smoke enters the main cooking chamber directly to the upper left corner where the stack is. So, by putting in an extension so down to the lower left corner above the cooking surface, you...
I use the heck out of guardian Service aluminum cookware. The FDA certified it a safe, so I don't there is anything to worry about, plus it is not subject to direct heat.
I have a char griller, and the aluminum works fine. It shows smoke/oil residue as expected, but there is no evidence heat marks, so I doubt it is a problem. I ran a couple of smoke without and then and then with it, and having it in does make a difference - much more evident smoke rings for...
I use a small Char Broiler thermometer ($5.97 from Wal-Mart) mounted a slightly above grate level. Works great. Oh, BTW - I calibrated via the boiling water method. Playing with the air flow, I can get whatever I want smoked with one load of charcoal plus a 3/4 chimney using the minion method...
Best source - Grommet Link to McMaster Carr. you can also get silicon plugs to block the holes when not in use. Try using high temp silicon plugs used for powder coating - possibly from Eastwood.

Starting small,. I took just the Char Griller SFB and moded it in to a mini smoker as a learning exercise. I raised the grate height 1 1/2 inches, and added tabs to mount heat deflectors under each grate, and one is interchangeable with an under grate water pan if I need more grate cooking...
Some random thoughts on the Smokin' Pro and mods. I did lot of reading, including great info here, and had an epiphany - so I bought a Char Griller Side Fire Box. I also decided it needed a few mods first raising the inside and thus the grates by 1 1/2 inches, added a couple of removable heat...
I decided to try the smoking thing, but did not want to dive headfirst in to it until I had some idea of what it was all about or if I would even like doing. I did lot of reading, including great info here, and had an epiphany - so I bought a Char Griller Side Fire Box (SFB) 2424 . I figured it...
