One more question for all you experts. The seller is representing these in his ad as Fabers, yet his photos clearly show the M8004 marking as meaning a Canadian-made Worthington, making them identical to my other HP100. Reading through the forums, I have seen an occasional reference to Worthingtons having an issue passing hydros. Would any one know the story behind that? I do know that MY Worthington HP100, DOM in 2010 did pass hydro last year but I'd hate to buy a pair of 2013 models with problems.

Thanks again for all the help. Once I get these in and checked, I'll probably get a pair of plugs from DGX after all as the seller is not sure if he still has the original plugs. I assume I would need a left and right hand plug? The entire manifold is XS Scuba BTW
 
you would need a left and a right plug.

Worthingtons have an issue passing hydro if the shop doesn't do a rounding procedure when they hydro. Basically fill to 90% of test pressure, let it relax, then fill it to test pressure. They're fine otherwise.

One thing of note with those worthington's is that they are VERY negatively buoyant. About 6lbs more negative than a set of fabers.
