Wow this is a genius idea! Perfect symmetry can now be created! Can't wait to see Derek take advantage of these bad boys.

Just some technical talk: All of our blocks have threaded helio-coils inserts for the pumphead for proper torque to the block. Also the dual 3/8 ports on top have shallow tapers for a tight connection, and also we simplified our blocks dual 3/8 ports and eliminated the useless air stem that you would see on the typical pumps. Why? Because we designed our stuff for THIS scene!

---------------------------------------------Originally posted by tre5There are 2 recesses. The one in the middle is for the pumphead seal. We use a double o-ring seal for the pump head seal. The other recess is also for an o-ring. Neither of those holes are threaded though.---------------------------------------------I meant the 3/8" output and return. I am just giving you guys a hard time because I hate pipe thread.

Great idea! That is one thing I have always hated about hydraulic pump blocks, with the exception of internal dumps. I'm a pretty A-symetrically kind of guy so that always drove me crazy! Keep up the good work guys!

Awesome idea guys. Is there a reason the ports are farther apart on the reverse block or does it just look that way in the photos?

They are a "little" further apart, yeah. Reason being I could make a reverse port block, but I couldn't make a reverse pumphead

Where was this 8 months ago?? Alas...time to ditch a pump anyway.
