You can keep going smaller until your clutch is toast or you cut 1.5 sec lights because you're waiting for the clutch pedal to come up. lol

because thats exactly what your picture looks like.

The pic is just a pic of a valve that looks similar (as already stated) The control valve i have works in the same way as the tilton without the need to take it apart and change orifices.
They are basically a metering valve and check valve in one.

Re: tilton valve question if you dont mind
I just did a quick research and the hydraulic fcv's I found sound like they only meter the hydraulic fluid if you could give us a link of one that is only one direction metering that would be great. One could be built very easily for about $40 with a hydraulic check valve with t's on both sides with a hard nitrous line and a jet going from one t to the other and you would have more adjustability, just a thought if someone doesn't want to spend the money.

Re: tilton valve question if you dont mind
Maybe Tony, Full-race or anyone can start making this FCV for us that is more reasonable price that would be great. It does not mean trying to save your driveline components i.e axles, clutch, transmission etc. that a company can make a part that maybe save these parts from breaking have to charge this much. It is way over priced IMO just my .02

Re: tilton valve question if you dont mind
Yeah they are over priced. Probably cost them $10, if so much to make. Prototype was probably $50. OOOOH there making more than enough lol............sucks because I will end up buying it for the $170 too LOL

Re: tilton valve question if you dont mind
i've researched the options on the FCV. I've looked into other possible ways to make this work or to manufacture a similar part in the past. But for the amount of people that were interested in using this type of stuff was VERY small compared to now. It wasnt even a good investment to start out a production on a piece that very few would be interested in. Alot dont even know it exist and the ones that have heard about it, not all really know exactly what it does. $170 may sound a bit much for a tiny part, but the fact that it works, its proven, and its easy to use makes it worth the money in the long run. Its one of those parts that you know it will help you, its worth the money.

Re: tilton valve question if you dont mind
Broke my Saenz box with the medium pill in it (WHich DID happen on a shift)... Im running a CC twindisk, and Ive rebuilt the Saenz and am Trying it out again...
Surely cant wait till PPG gets the H dogs done so they can get our syncroed sets started...
I agree... Way overpriced though
Start with the smallest if your seriously worried about breaking ****
