On the top choke plate there should be some numbers or around that area, anything there?
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

Looks like it's a 450cfm

I'll look in my files tomorrow to make sure and see if I can find out what it was off originally

Thanks  Busy,
Sounds like a can of worms to me.
Now what to replace it with?
