Jim, the C&R valves are on ebay all the time as surplus from various NASCAR/ARCA teams. Most of them have AN fittings for the hose connections, though. They pop up under different search terms so you'll need to dig a bit. -Al

Here's what Jim Marshall told me one year at Indy. " Ice is for cooling beer, not engines." I still get a grin when I think of him saying that.
