I did lower the fire box hole but there is nothing you can do to make the thin metal retain heat.
The temps inside are perfect for the way I cook you just have to keep stoking the thing.

It is like a cast iron kettle will boil and keep boiling at a much lower amount of BTU's at the burner than an aluminum or thin metal one will.
There is no replacement for mass.
