Bought a Sawtooth and see where Kifaru recommends 76" stovepipe with their stoves. I bought a large SO u-turn and ordered an 84" pipe. Any insight on if this is long enough, or too long? Seems the higher out the stove jack, the less coals will fall back down on the tent? Thanks..

Only too long if it isn't stable. Will draw well at that length. Mine's 8 feet and I have the same stove, but I don't use a Sawtooth. But that long pipe works well and isn't much heavier than the recommended length. Only reason to cut it would be to save weight IMO. I would run it a while and then decide.

Embers on the tent has as much to do with the quality of wood you're burning as it does pipe length.
