475 PSI? I find that difficult to believe.

Thanks for the drawing. I have not received it yet. Should be in my hands in the next day or so as long as Rodger remembers.

The filter outside of the tank should be a return filter, omit the outside suction filter, this summer I should have my sp1 Narrow Gauge Little Giant at NEOLS this summer open meet if you need to see it up close
