Do any of you know of a STC approved Rocker box oil recovery valve/system for the C-45?

Thanks!

There was one legal one out there but when the gentleman who made them became ill production stopped.

Stoney (NATA) is selling copies of them but without the STC so you will have to get your own field approval for them.

I was selling the valve that Carl Schmieder had been selling but I could not find affordable machine shop here to make them for me. It seems everytime I find a shop to make them, they start to grow and no longer want to deal with a small order like mine.
