Can someone give me the spec for the hydraulic tubing to/from the pump/valve? 149 or 1450. Just tube size, ID and OD. Making my own. Thanks a bunch!!!

Chris C, My preference of practice is clean/dry mating surfaces and a dry gasket. Works every time if done correctly man

Oh yea, torque to specs, to insure no leaks!

Funny you brought up the sirometer. I had to get mine out this week to try to resolve vibration issues in a machine at work. Takes me waaaay back to when I learned about them here. The days when you wouldn't see the same posts across the street, 'cause there was only one side of the street then.

IIRC Don V shared a little tidbit about the distance of swing distinguishing balance geared engines from non grenade versions. Cool little item.
