Results? I don't think I've seen anybody compare a "single-change" from tube to bell. Did you see all of the stated benefits of the bell vs tubing?
EDIT: I might add, re: metal in the riser. I've noticed that the metal will only "burn out" in the bottom 1/3 or so of the riser and it's relatively stable above/after that point. I surmise that the amount of insulation around the metal would determine how far you would have to go for it to be stable.

So far, so good. The stove lights easier, smokes back less, seems to burn hotter (can't really prove that). I haven't measured anything yet, but the bench never really got warm before at all and that is no longer true. Last time I ran the stove, I seem to remember that there was a heat gradient from one end to the other, hotter by the stove/barrel, cooler on the other side. How much, as I said, I didn't measure. I can give you more information in February, I'm out of town till then.
