Gack......
I'm doing more or less what DrMike is doing, using CEJN's for the QD's so that hoses can go directly to breathing regulators (BOV, etc) in time of need. I'd think that the kluge of stuff into that switch valve is just way too much. As Phi says, the attempt to ensure a path after any failure *becomes* the points of failure. If simple = good, then the opposite is true. That's a pretty complex system..... just a comment.
Adding ports to the first stages is not hard.. use T's and that's that. If you need any custom manifold work, let me know, as I can whip them out in brass with any desired port including 3/8-24 with the *correct* O-Ring counterbore included (have the special reamer to cut the bore). Easy stuff.
