Not to divert the focus of this thread away from a fantastic score of a beautiful grill (I have an EO 26er as well and really appreciate this find for that reason), but if appearance wasn't a concern I'm sure that the 26" SNS COULD fit in this grill without modification, but the grate would be caddywampus, sloping to one side. As McGolden stated previously, there are several EXCELLENT ways to still use this grill as a smoker (two fire bricks are just as good, imo), it just sux that the SNS doesn't fit.
