Question Trying to fit A/C Heater Valve???

I'm just outside now installing my replacement A/C vacuum heater valve and I have realised that I don't know what way round it should go, it's different to the original as one of the two pipes coming from it is taller and is L shaped image here http://www.classicparts.com/images/68-965.JPG My question is,does the short one or the L shaped one go to the heater box????

Thanks in advance.

I don't think it matters but I would put the long curved one toward the heater that way the engine pressure is directly against the valve

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
