converting MK5 2 lp port to 5 lp port

[raftingtigger]

I just picked up an older (thin yoke, 2 LP, 1 HP) MK5 along with the 109A second I was looking for. I don't really need this 1st stage, but might use it as a SM/pony regulator. I would probably convert it to DIN, so the thin yoke isn't an issue, but the 2 LP ports 180 degrees from each other complicates the hose routing if I use it for a SM regulator. Is it possible - assuming I can find the parts - to convert this to the newer 5 LP port turret?

Also does anyone have a MKV schematic or service manual? I do have a MKVII schematic - so probably have what I need already.

I haven't dismantled it yet - but the IP looked good.

Thanks

5 port swivels come up regularly on ebay, some virtually new. Use a stainless swivel retainer bolt, also available on the internet.

Just bought this on ebay.



Anyone interested in the older MK5?

Now you have everything you need to convert your 2 port to a 5 port. ......sorry, I just could not pass that opportunity up.

Thanks Couv. I needed that. See my new post "dilemma" under regulators. I mentioned you.
