Salvo manifold

[amc717]

Just wanted to get feedback on this manifold. I'm choosing between Halcyon and Salvo. Hope you could give feedback on both manifolds. Searched and found 1 thread with the discussion/comparison, but it seems incomplete and old. Hope you guys could provide me with more recent information. Thanks.

I don't think you will find any noticable difference. I think Salvo is out of 200 bar manifolds right now. If I am not mistaken they come from the same place, Halcyon just have an H on them.

Get a Sea Elite, works great, same design. They come O2 clean for about $130ish.

Apparently they're not the same thing.

However--given the cost difference I'd probably get the Salvo. The Halcyon will probably run you ~$100 more.

Same design, I didn't say they were the same thing. They are made in two differnt factories. The new Halcyon manis have rounded valves vs. square. And they have a pewter colour finish. Other than that pretty close.

Eh you posted before me--you weren't supposed to do that!
My previous post was meant for Brent.

HAHAH sorry...long day at work, I'm cranky. =)

Yeah they are not exact and Halcyon has been making some changes to their design. The old halcyon is pretty much identical to all the other styles. I still don't think you will notice much of a difference between any of them.

I may have a 300 bar manifold in stock. Call me on Monday if you are interested. I'll work a SB discount for you.

Yes, who cares as long as it works great. I have Sea Elite, Halcyon, and Salvo minifolds. I don't see any difference except some logos... BTW, I don't care about 2 1/2 turns, too.
