Pilediver they just got bough out.  Think the new company is called SST or something like that. Adding that 4th heat exchanger you get killer heat.  Had to upgrade to new lines that are rated at 311 deg's. Blew out 2 of my Goodyear lines.  You can hold line for about 2 sec before it will burn you hand. Engine runs smother to and more suction.  I run the same CFM's as a Vortex now at half the price.

I'm surprised to hear that. I have had great service from them.  They are still in business I am adding a custom 4th heat exchanger that I just picked up from them 4 days ago.  When i was looking for a TM I searched them all and have not found any thing close to what this can do for the price.  Every thing is over build in the machine, stainless frame, heat exchange, fitting, very simple and easy access to all parts.  The only one close to it was the Vortex(over priced),  know a guy that has one and he was bragging about having a lot more suction.  So I purchased a CFM guage and tested both he was running about 50 more CFM's(am going to change the pluming to 4" and add 2 waste tank filters next), and with running 4 heat exchangers the heats there.  You well have to let me know what you get, I am looking at upgrading my first TM older Prochem unit in the next year.  If you can find somthing better around 21k would love to see what you come up with.

I haven't yet recieved mine but it won't be an Ace - because they are no longer in business due to the way they ran their business and handled the service issues with their customers.
 
Concept was good but everything else went wrong...

Pilediver did you ever get a truck mount?  Did you get the ace unit?  I don't know if you remember you were asking how mine was.  Have had it a year and a half now,  and have nothing but good things to say about Al and his company.   Unit is still running solid,  I did upgrade to  2.5  hose makes a  difference in freeing up some of the  lost  cmf's  from a 2" hose.  I read some post how it doesn't make much different from running a small TM but it does.  I came from a small TM.  Think a big truck mount is nice but would not spend 80K on one,  after all a customer would never know the difference from a 5k TM to a 80K and you could charge the same.  The only advantage I have noticed with a big TM is that it is easer on you and a little faster.  If you want it for the advertising just get a big truck and put a small machine in it, and call it a big truck mount customers don't know and they don't care.

Charges more if they have a bench seat to sleep on. Road kill stew is extra.
