I had the designs for the PET tubing from Zurn,insulation in floor etc. Then I talked to guys who had it some were positive. Some said just use gas
forced air. So I changed. Floor will be 5 " thick minimum4000 psi with fiber. I have steel rods that I'm not going to use. I've done all the building myself. Oh the upstairs floor is 2x4 30 ft trusses on 16" centers 24 " high. No spongeeness.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
