I am installing a kaowool quickie chamber in an oil boiler. I wanted to use some firebrick for support. The local masonry store has "low duty firebrick cone 16" is this appropriate?

Bricks:
From what "I" understand, that masonry store firebrick may not like being toasted as much as it will be in that chamber.
Is this kaowool "Quickie" made by Lynn? I usually use a Lynn "Wet Blanket" that comes in a box and in a bag. I just form it up as needed. I don't need anything to hold it up. Once it gets hot, it then holds its shape and stays put. I use them for a lot of things. Like when I clean a cold start Weil-Mclain Gold and the bottom "rug" is falling apart. I replace it with a piece of this. The next time I need to clean it, I can then slide the whole thing out.
I've used it for clean-out plate gaskets on large boilers.
But whatever,0
