Your right thanks Mark. Let me start over on that.

With a 1.5" hole you can drain 1325gph at 20" linear (which has nothing to do with what Untamed was talking about) but if you increase the linear you can as per RC calculator increase GPH.(not sure why as it becomes a side ways pressure instead of a down pressure) ??? LOL

Believe the recommended weir length is just for designing a overflow box that will give you ~0.25" rise of water over the weir for good surface skimming.
