    Minicocker Vertical Adapter

    I'm looking for a vertical adapter, something like the one in the second picture. I guess they may be known as a minicocker VA? Idk, whatever I've been searching for hasn't turned up results.

    It's going on a E-bolt 98 Custom, to connect the HPR and LPR directly to the valve; where the volumizer would normally be on a LP kit. See first pic. Specifically, I need 1/8 NPT threads on the top (male or female, doesn't matter) and female 1/8 NPT threads on the side. Color and condition doesn't matter as long as it seals.

    I have a shocktech minicocker vertical ASA available in black.
    $25

    Usually sits nicely flush against a frontblock rather than having that skinny bit at the top.
    Need Inception Designs or Shocktech Products? Let me know!

      I don't think it would, but you are right that that setup looks a little tight.

      Does it have a gauge port? The ST ones I've seen don't have one.

      No gauge port.

    ​​​​​​​Here is one installed on a Pre2K block. It would definitely be close.

      I should have specified my original post, it's not for an autococker, the picture isn't mine. The VA is going on an E-bolt 98 Custom, to run the HPR directly to the value, and connect the LPR to the same fitting.

        Just to be clear you aren't talking about a Tippmann Vertical Adapter? See image below.

          Correct, not looking for a Tippmann Vertical adapter.

          I see the pictures and now understand and will check my parts bin. Where are you taking the LPR air?

          The LPR is going to a solenoid in the grip frame to power the e-bolt. In the picture, the barb on the LPR would stick up into the body, and hopefully I can cut a channel to run the air hose underneath the trigger.

        Sounds like you need one of these:

        Anderson Metals Brass Pipe Fitting, Barstock Street Tee, 1/8" Female Pipe x 1/8" Male Pipe x 1/8" Female Pipe https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B006PKKXM4/...ing=UTF8&psc=1

        Plus a Minicocker ASA.

        I used one on my own Ebolt build.

          If you can't find a Minicocker vasa like that (which seems most ideal), maybe ask Palmer's to customize this 1/8" npt male to female ASA adapter by adding a 1/8" npt side port?

          https://palmerspursuit.com/collectio...inless-1-8-npt

          I've used that to directly connect to the Tippy 98 CVX valve before although it did require a little bit of massaging the receivers.

          If going that route, maybe look into having an Automag vasa - since they already have side ports -redrilled/retapped on top for 1/8" npt that would then just need a 1/8” npt male-to-male nipple.
