Dual Air Regulators

What are people using for a dual regulator to shift lenco CS2 [250 psi] and a supply source for the EM timer and air logs [ 0 to 160 psi ]
Thanks

 

Snyder sells a split regulator to do exactly that.

 

Thanks blown375, I have been using the snyder dual regulator but had a intermittent gear shift problem that trashed a lot of valvetrain and cannot find anything wrong with the transmission so am thinking that the regulator may be giving trouble

 

i went to a local welding supply company and bought a "T" to put on the bottle and use two separate regulators

 

It's very easy to check , plug one side and put a gauge on the other, then switch it .

 

It's not an air servo or solenod problem is it ?

 

Have checked pressure at regulator and servo , has only happened once, put spare heads on and checked transmission , went back out and the car ran fine
Just wondering if anyone can recommend a good regulator that will handle drag racing conditions
Thanks

 

Shifnoid dual compensating regulator. Nice clean setup that works great.

 

I've used the same regulator from Snyder for about 10 years, still have the original in my car and have never had any issues. I'm not saying an o-ring can't go bad but I doubt it. Was your issue that the car didn't shift? Are you shifting manually or via a MSD controller?

Brandon, am shifting the car manually, have a Ken Murray built shifter , looking at the racepak data on the 1/2 shift the trans started to make ratio then slipped to 2.4,clutch revs went to 11400 , trans clutch pack looks fine, have made 2 good runs since this happened
Hurts throwing low run valves,springs,rods in the bin
Thanks

 

I use a N2O filter when refilling the CO bottle.
No junk in the system since.
Why everyone is not doing this is a mystery to me.

 

Have you seen the filter collect a lot of junk?

 

Have you checked to make sure the servo is in proper adjustment; also what does the sprag and inner/outer race look like? I've not seen the Ken Murray Shifter, we run the Lenco/Clippard Valve buttons and have never had an issue. I would bet my shifter buttons are just as old as the regulator.

Thanks Brandon
Sprags look fine, servo adjustment checked, like I said made 2 good passes since this happened, maybe another of life,s unexplained mysteries
