Hi Sean, the 25,000 BTU burner would work, but your dryer was meant to have a two level 20,000/37,000 BTU burner 25,000 would be enough to dry clothes but would modify the dryers design a little bit but it would work.
You would need to make some modifications to the thermostats the modulating burner dryers held the exhaust temperature around 165° and relied on the tapering down of the heat because the heat never cycled off during the heat portion of the cycle John | ||

Maybe I might look into converting my 1963 Whirlpool Imperial dryer to gas one day but I’ll have to see. One thing I wish I could find is a booster fan like the older Whirlpool dryers had in the early 50’s but I am not sure if it would work on the newer style of Whirlpool 29” dryers from the early 60’s since the fan would have to have a spindle to connect to but would be in the way of the belt tensioner and would have to have a piece cus made to the belt groove and spindle for the fan to screw on.
