I had a 1 1/4 reducer in my durso from a 1.5 bulkhead and took it out to see if it operated differently when I was testing my ampmaster3K. No change.

If you are running a smaller bulkhead the reduction is necssary. All you will do by adding in the reduction after the bulkhead is reduce the max flow of your durso. In this case.
Yea I don't have any reducer and it works great.
