NEED HELP WITH FLOW MIXING OF CALEFFI SEP AT MY CASTLE

As of right now I have 9 loops of 5\8 hepex averaging around 300 ft per loop I think. Gonna get thermal! Camera out and measure real soon. The flow on the manifold flow meters is there all wide open flowing .9 GPM. Almost 1gpm. I did check the air separator and dirt separator and they were clean, but look what this idiot (me) did while soldering in the Caleffi Dirt Sep. Attached is a pic of a scorched piece of the collasecing mesh inside dirt sep that I burnt with Map gas. Didn't noticed I was burning until I seen the black smoke. I had to resolder it twice because of leaks ( I suck at soldering) and I held the flame inside of it trying to melt the old solder so I could try again. Caleffi may have made this with idiots like me in mind because I just slid burnt piece out and now there 8 pieces of mesh left. Should still get the job done.0
