    Is it possible? I think it's a spitfire 4.0 and My prochem is a Legend from the late 90's. I'm looking at one on ebay and I think it might fit. What's ya'lls opinion?

    There is usually a way to adapt and make a heat exchanger fit different machines. If it looks like you can make it work, give it a try.

    It only costs $180. I think it's worth a try

    Hey Todd, do you think that it is the same size to where I can fit it in the same spot on my legend?

    Hard to say without seeing the two together. I know Prochem heat exchangers pretty well but I have never worked on a spitfire heat exchanger, do you have a picture of the spitfire one?

    Looks like a fairly easy hookup, you may get lucky and have it fit right in. If not, I am sure with a little modification to the exhaust pipe by a welder you can make it work.
