yep the regulator screws into the whistle port and then the steam pipe goes from the regulator to the lubricator, then to the reversing block over the top of the burner.

Then you need an upgraded safety valve to go on the top of the regulator.

I don't think they look too bad, mind you I would keep the lubricator up the front else it will get crowded.

If you look on PPS website under mamod upgrades you see a pic there.

You could get gas and cram a gas tank in there too!
