Can someone tell me what the measured distance is from the front edge of the frame to the center bottom (gap distance)of the front grill is on the HG?  I believe that it is at least a few inches.  Is it the same measurement on an original grill as opposed to the Zimmerman reproduction grill?

I'm afraid I have no time to go measure but you might want to call Landis and ask him that question ((717-738-2573)
The grill that Landis makes looks similar to the original at a distance.  I believe the shape is the same and therefore dimensions to the frame should be the same.
Up close you can tell the difference.  The original grill was a stamping and the openings are rolled over.  The grill Landis makes is made of heavier material and the openings are cut out but not rolled over to the inside.

I would say it's about 5 1/2" and maybe less as you move out from the center.
You may be able to remount the pump further back if you change your mounting bracket, I am tring to figure away to do this myself.
Keep Well,
