i like these for ball valves i use these to drain my tank i have it with a 5/8 port i could of used a 1/2 inch port but feed line is 5/8 so i went with it. but it is a 3 way valve so it is super easy to drain the tank and they are stainless

Visited the Nova Saturday, Robert's making some headway. The RR Qtr was cut off and he was prepping the new panel to weld on. Can't wait to get it back home so I can get back to work on it!

You have a Nova???

I knew you did years ago.... :smt005 :smt005

So I guess "Ole Blue" is coming up for parole?

Well I guess we won't be hearing from John for awhile, he'll be too busy.
Those who think they know it all have no way of finding out they don't......... :scratch:

Me too... These updates have taken FOREVER. It does look like this year it may get back out again if all goes well.

It's mostly steel colored right now, and black fiberglass, before long it'll be blue again.
