I just picked up a used Weber Genesis 330 in excellent condition and need to convert it to propane. I’ve already sourced the manifold but am looking for a complete side burner assembly.

Just wanted to see if anyone had one laying around they wanted to part with.

Pay attention to the cautionary "stickies" about converting. Don't believe anyone that tries to sell you a "kit" or tells you it's a simple orifice swap. It's not. Except for the side burner. That is easy
 
I am going to swap out the complete manifold with a new OEM one for the propane version of my model.

Can I just change out the orifice for the side burner? I didn’t find much info on that. If so that would be great.

Gotcha on that DM but for others that honestly works fine

Hi, I might have a propane one. Could you please send a picture of the grill to confirm.

Also, I would test the NG side burner without changing the oriface once you get the propane hooked up. Some of the valves are continuous so you might have enough control for a reasonable flame.

I have both NG and LP E330 in my garage. I'll look tomorrow and post the differences, but they are different. At least orifices maybe the valves too.

I don't have a spare LP side burner.

I looked at two side by side and they appear identical except the orifices, but the valves might be different internally.

I did an orifice conversion on the burner of an NG to use on LP and it was really hot. Hotter than a factory LP side burner.

You need all the flame you can get on those side burners. Any wind and they are nearly useless.

Yep, I am checking but I think I have blank orifices so I am going to make him a new proper one if my blanks are the same. My plan is to hedge it just a little "over" so he has a little better performance
