The Gorton #2 (G2) appears to have only a 1/2 " size thread. The opening in my main is 3/4" is it possible to use the G2 or do i need to have multiple G1's which have a 3/4 " thread size into the main. I planned on connecting 2 G2's I would rather not do 6 G1's

Don't they have 3/4 inch threads on the outside of the stem, as well as the 1/2 inch I.D.? that should give you a bit more flexibility.--NBC0

Not the Gorton #2, just the #1's.0

And this somehow makes sense to Gorton...put bigger threads on the smaller vent. In reality it doesn't matter for venting capacity, but never made sense to me.Fred said:Not the Gorton #2, just the #1's.
