    Schrader Valve Pocket Specs

    So I am looking at finally solving the ICE Epic regulator seal issue by changing out the guts to include a Schrader Valve from the Bob Long 360 reg. I can source the valve without issue, but cannot find anywhere the specs of what the pocket and threads should look like. From my understanding it is an 8mm Schrader. Does anyone out there have the specs or a drawing for what the pocket needs to look like? My retrofit should allow the use of some of the factory regulator guts to keep costs and complexity down. The seals will all be standard orings as well.

    Thanks all in advance!

      Here is what I remember from my time designing automotive fuel systems...
      Got it from here: https://schrader-pacific.com/wp-cont...Valve-Core.pdf
      Not sure that the 8mm ones would use the same core.

        Thanks! I should be able to extrapolate the dimensions from this and apply to a different size.
