No suspension due to the fact I rarely cut or split off my family property all within a mile from the house. I use 10-15 cord a year on a bad year, so if I use this the rest of my life, it shouldn't see more than a few hundred cord.
No, I figured the hose length with the 45° elbows in place. I added the 45° on the main cylinder mainly due to the fact that the one port is so close to the valve, I would have to had an excessively long hose right at the valve to keep the bend radius acceptable. And after adding the one 45° and the hose routed directly over the other port, the second 45° became necessary. I don't think that the 45°'s will restrict too much. I checked the calculations for each a 90° elbow and 45°, and the 45° was a much lower restriction. Actually a 45° is only 1/4 the head addition than a hard 90°. So my 2 45°'s should be half the restriction than 1 90°. But yes, I will be watching the temps. Worst case, I can add a return line cooler, but I doubt I will need it.
