    Not sure who made the valves, I bought them used on ebay. They are actually two blocks. I made the distribution manifold thing out of a chunk of alluminum.

    I think your water separator is upside down by the way.

    Edit: Just realized the whole setup is turned upside down in that pic.

    Those are Chassistech Valves. They work really good. I had the same deal but red (1/2" in's and out's)

    That "air rail" is tight as foook. I want something like that myself.
    too bad nobody makes it.

    It doesn't look like it would be that hard to make, just some 120 Aluminium Tube, cap the ends using a tig, and then drill and tap for fittings. Probably took about 2hrs to make.

    You could do it that way. I just rifled a solid bar and drilled and tapped. just need a big bit and a pipe tap.


  20. 02-13-2008 10:27 AM #56
    Hmmm, that's even easier. It would eliminate the "Chamber" created with using tube. Not that a chamber would affect anything adversely though. That's not a cheap bit though, thats for sure.

    OR, you can do what I did and buy an anodized billet manifold already tapped and drilled for her pleasure

    it has a square profile, but tidys up the install and is tucked away.

    Yep. Its Dakota Digital, it's part of their Odyssey line. It's pretty good. I am having problems with my tank pressure sending unit.
