i been running 3/8 lines and valves but i want to speed the dumps up. i was thinkin about converting the lines and fittings to 1/2 inch and using the same 3/8 valves but will it dump faster with a 1/2 inch valve?

I have 3/8 valves, with all 3/8 NPT fittings, and I run 1/2" line, and mine is pretty fast.

1/2" line will have more volume of air.

the volume will only effect the lift right? cause i know the orfice on 3/8 and 1/2 inch valves are bigger than the actual inside diamiter of the 1/2 inch line is that right

shorten the distance between your bag and valves and that should speed that up

Yeah, mine dumps damn fast and the valves are about 2' away. I have alot of 3/8" NPT to 1/2"OD hose fittings for sale if you wanna convert to 1/2" lines.
