decel valve same as bypass valve?

[auditude at cox.net]

Hi Brett,

Right.  I do understand the different functions, I was wondering if they were the same part tho'.  An Audiworld poster and I were discussing this a bit, and he basically said they were the same part.  Initially I disagreed, but looking at the diagram on the SJM site, I think it might be possible.

One is called the deceleration cutoff valve, or something like that, and the other is call the throttle overrun valve, or something like that.

Neither TPC or the Worldpac sites seem to carry either, otherwise I would have compared part numbers.  I don't have access to a family album lately.

Btw, the AW poster is proposing a group buy of European single-pass 10v IC setups, if anyone is interested.

Thanks,

Ken

P.S. I sure would like to find out what your tranny whine is!
