<div>James,</div><div>Since these are simply for stability, I would use two solenoid valves. No need to weld into a finished sub. I would make a container to put the valves in so they can be oil filled. This is what Elementary 3000 has. You can make the solenoid housing so it is part of the tank so it looks good. I like the deck idea also-Gamma has a deck and it is great.</div><div>Hank</div><div><br></div>
