    Is there any problem with mounting the port distribution block with the port check valve on the top instead of coming in the bottom ?

    If you are asking if both distribution blocks can be mounted together on top of the blower, I would say yes. We ran our car like that for several years with both blocks mounted together and just ran our lines accordingly. I by no means a fuel expert though!

    if you're going to mount the block on top of the blower, make sure your lines are longer than the blower restraints, in that the lines don't become blower restraints if the blower is banged.

    dist. block

    Did it for years. Going to do it again this year with the new blower set-up. It just cost a little more fpr the longer lines. Just be smart about pluming it. Call Will with your order. Don

    I have mounted it on top of the blower before with no issues ,thats not what i am asking.

    I guess I wasn't clear with my question.

    What I mean is : normaly the block is mounted with the inlet/port check valve coming in the bottom of the distribution block and the port lines come out above the inlet, is there a reason it cant be be fliped over and turned around so the inlet of the block is on the top and the port hoses come out below the port check for clearance?

    P.S. Will how much do you get for a set of port hoses?

    Well, this isn't quite like your talking about as mine is on it's side. It has pressure to it so it shouldn't matter what orientation it is in. And yes, I do have extra slack in the port lines.
