"The big difference to the Y-6b is that the “b” did not use the older
Worthington BL but used the SA type behind the smoke stack. Thus the smoke box
got longer than the Y-6, Y-6a and Y-5 class. Also the smoke stack in the “b”
has a forward tilt to it that allows the new equipment to fit inside. The “b’
hangs an air pump off of either side in a symmetrical manner."

Gary,
Just to clarify to Neil, the SA FWH was ahead of the smoke stack which did
lengthen the smoke box. The cause of the smoke stack slant was due to the use
of the front end throttle not the SA FWH.
