Adding Fireboard , Thermoworks+Billows or other fan temperature control to Weber Performer
I have seen Fireboard mods to the WSM. I want to add something like this to my new Crimson standard performer to turn it into a smoking machine.
I currently use the maverick XR50 Thermometer.
With my crimson performer there is a factory hole where the ignition assist would normally be.
I put an SnS smoke hole cover on that hole for now ( it really helps dialing in the air flow).
I want to utilize that factory hole & add the ThermoWorks Billows, Fireboard Drive Blower or PitViper,Venom, or something similar.

- Does anyone here have experience adding the Fireboard, Venom or Pitviper to a standard 22" kettle?
- Is there a better alternative to Fireboard.
- Would I need to drill the existing hole larger?
- Is that hole location in a good spot? ( see pictures below)
