    Can anyone help me understand the equivalencies between a Hoffman 75 and a Gorton #2 main vent? In other words how many Hoffman 75s does it take to equal one Gorton #2?

    Roughly

    2-1/2 Hoffman #75 vents to one Gorton #2, depending on what pressure you're measuring at.

    When you get to the point

    where you can't hear the air you'll know that you've got it.
    Retired and loving it.

    real world: The Hoffman is like blowing thru a small tube on a the can of WD-40 the Gorton #2 is like blowing through an open piece of 1/2" pipe.
