I'm having a hard time finding the correct fitting for the Basset T-valve. Does anyone know where I can get a new one? My concern is the length of the side that goes into the "T" I can find fittings that fit it but it feels like they are too long and apply too much pressure to the ball and spring. Iv'e looked on Basset's site but they don't list that part individually. The one I have is so thrashed, I don't even know what it looked like new :-\ Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
James

Without knowing what the original looked like, I think these are what im looking for:

If those are correct, what size do I need?

Take the fitting out and get a pic up of the inside of it. It should be o-ringed and have a seat machined in for the ball to seal to. I agree, looks a little like an AN adaptor threaded in there, in which case, a new valve would be where I would go. Better prices on that kinda stuff from Tom at JBP or Jim at Cyclone than using CP Performance, just FYI.

Here is the pic of it (whats left of it). I don't know what a new one would look like so I can't even confirm this is the right one to begin with :banghead:

So from what your saying, if the fitting is trash I need a whole new T-valve :o

Just buy the whole valve. Toms got a much cheaper version than the Bassett $90 T, same inside, actually, the same one Rewarder sells..........
