little Larry's valve's

Was wondering if anyone had any knowledge on these manual valves seems kinda pricey but they are sosposed to be faster than the airlift paddle valves.

They sure do look cool.
Wish they didn't have the name engraved in the front of them.

Re: little Larry's valve's

yeah just put a set of them on a customers 66 c10. worked great and super fast compared to the other manual valves. used 3/8 line whick is a benefit and the valves can work as fast or slow as you want them to.

only minor complaint is they are not as responsive as an electric valve which is expected. hope that helps.

very plzed

Cool thanks sounds good. So you ran 3/8 line from bags to valves and 3/8 from valves to tank as well. Also did you make a video.

Re: little Larry's valve's

yup. 3/8 line all around. you could run 1/2 if you want but the 3/8 is more than sufficient. i can make a video give me a day or so and i will post it..

one other thing good about these valves is all the guage ports are made into the block so you dont have alot of t's or crazy fittings to install to read bag and tank pressure.

makes for very clean install and super easy to diagnose an issue if one occurs.
5 lines and your system is up and running.

if you dont use guages just remember to plug the 1/8 ports for the guages. lol

Re: little Larry's valve's

Cool thanks for all the help I'm going to purchase them I noticed you said five lines is all you need but what did you do as far as exhaust isn't there a 6th port for exhaust and if so did you just put a fitting on it and run a line outside the cab through the fire wall.

Re: little Larry's valve's

yaeh there is a port for the exhaust. you can put a fitting in and run it out of the cab. i used an air muffler and installed it in the exhaust port. and left it inside the cab. its not very load and i didnt have to put another hole in the cab. your system will work even if you leave the exhaust port open.
