I like to tee the dump off instead of running through it but what you have is functionally correct.

not the best pic to work from because Im running dual slowdowns and theyre before the dumps... but see how the flow goes from the check right to the hose? anytime the flow has to go through the dump it's going to slow the response time..

doing it the "normal" way like you did is cleaner and takes less fittings but at the cost of a little speed. if youre just trying to lift and lay then dont worry about it, keep it like you have it.

damn thats a clean looking setup there but i think im gonna keep it like i got it for now, i dont know a whole lot about htis shit so i think im gonna save the creativeness until i learn a bit more about it, until then, it will have to work like this...
looks just like mine, and mine are ok :)
should really have the dumps teeded off for beter flow, but that will work
AS LONG AS YOUR ARROWS ARETOWARDS THE DUMP YOU GOT IT USE THREAD TAPE ALSO (TEFLON) :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
:thumbsup: A OTA!

looks good.. just need to get a few more chrome fittings, and the return lines with the chrome ends.. and bling bling
all the fittings are chrome, but the checks and the return lines, like you said, but all the fittings are chrome....

oh and yeah im gonna use teflon tape, i just put it together hand tight like this to make sure i got it right, thanks for everyones help....


this would be a good pic for people to save for whenever they get thier first setup...i dont know how many times ive seen people ask how to plumb a pump....so here you go....:)
