Gorton equivalents?

Member Posts: 34
Does anyone know the Gorton equivalent (i.e., 4,5,6,C or D) of the following older radiator vents:
Dole No. 1933
Dole "Syphon" vent
Ventrite #1 (adjustable) wide open
American Radiator Company No. 500
All of the above worked fine and provided a balanced system but need replacement and I'm trying to stick with Gortons.

I bought the ebook but it only covered one of the three vents in question. Any idea what the modern equivalent (preferably Gorton) of a Dole "Syphon" vent (no numbers on it) and also an American Radiator Company No. 500 vent? Thanks0
