Get some more opinions, but I would think transfering the load
shouldn't be a big deal as long as the spacing on your rafters is small
enough. If so, I'd probably think about reinforcing the neighboring
rafters with, say, a 6' length of 2x4, then making the chimney box
right in the middle of the reinforced area using 2x4s to connect the
three rafters together.
