RS-Ductwork.jpg Here is the diagram that I created and used to model the ductwork on SOO 371.
Looking at the pictures it would also be correct for 372. One change that I made
that is not shown on the diagram is that I removed the flared end that is toward
the cab. It was not flared but straight. I'm not sure why I had originally drawn it
that way. More info if anyone needs it.
