Dixie,
I hate Kilby with a passion. Their customer service is TERRIBLE. I had a recent experience with this as one of my universal quick disconnects (part #QDM from the Kilby store) won’t lock over male QD inserts placed into it. It used to, but won’t, now … and my system’s had precious little use, as I’m still building it out.
To make a long story short, I contacted Kilby by email, referenced my order number, and asked who made the part they were selling, as I wanted to contact the manufacturer and explain what was wrong … as well as determine if I’d failed to maintain the QD port in some way. The response Kilby gave me was (and I quote): “[FONT=Times New Roman]sorry we can supply that information to you”[/FONT]
Typo aside, you mean to tell me I can’t know who makes a part that’s on my vehicle … that I bought from Kilby? That’s absurd. So, I carefully inspected the part, found a stamp on it which read 152U, did some research, and learned it’s made by Coilhose Pneumatics. I also learned that Amazon has them for under 5 bucks, each … shipped 2-day delivery if you’re an Amazon Prime member (I am) … versus Kilby asking 11 bucks each for them and wanting $20.00 to ship one via UPS ground.
I’ll never do business with that company (Kilby) again… not after that scenario. That’s customer DISservice.
What kit are you after from them? The only thing Kilby really sells that is difficult to do yourself are the mounting systems for the York – and even that’s doable if you can weld (I can’t). If that’s what you’re after, since you have a few Yorks it’s probably prudent and most expeditious for you to find a fabrication/welding shop, take one of your Yorks to it, and describe/show someone exactly what you want and have them fab it for you – leaving the York with them for them to work with – after they take measurements off your engine’s mount points, of course.
Also, before punting and going DC, another EDC option is a Sanden – as it’s smaller than a York. You’ll need an oiler for that since it’s got no oil sump like the York. However, I’ve got almost no space to mount mine and am mounting a 210 … proof that you CAN shoe-horn a big York into a tight space if you are creative. My mechanical engineer and machinst friends hate me, though … because the bracket fab they’re doing is a complete pain, LOL.
The way I see it, you’ve got some Yorks … think it through, find a mount point, and discuss it with someone who does fab work. I bet you can find a way to get it in there if you really want to.
