Leon,
Sorry to here of your frustration.
I had very little space in my 360 for a Y valve. I could not find a vendor
that provided anything that would fit.
I had one fabricated at the local machine shop. It took several trips to
the hangar and back to make the angle fit and remain short enough. The oval
plate was also fabricated twice to fully seal when closed. After about 50
hours I added bronze bushings to the shaft to eliminate wear. Finally,
with only one plate the filtered side of the Y is always open. Perhaps I
purge it a little when using ram. Who knows.
The point is: You may have to go from scratch on this one. I did and
delightfully get over an inch of MP from the ram. I love it.
Good Luck
Larry
