2 main vents

Is it ok to use a tee and elbows to combine two vents together on my main? Or does one of the vent has to be straight up from the main hole and the other can be teed off.
The reason for this question is because my newly arrived Gorton #2 does not have any room on the side (it has lots of head room though).
And since I have a Gorton #1 as well, I was thinking maybe use a nipple off the main thread and the attach a tee and elbows so I can use both vents (visualize a Y shape diagram if you will).
Will this cause any problems?
Thanks.
PS. Shape will be more like a football field goal post. both vents on each endpost.

And if you use nine vents
you can make a Menorah. It is OK."If you do not know the answer, say, "I do not know the answer", and you will be correct!"
