Default Really random question..

and possibly pointless but its just to cure my curiousity.the standard dumpvalves that come on the cossies which are on the air pipe..if you were to take it off and put it on on the other side where u normaly do would it actuly work and do the job its meant to?

no idea why but its been bugging me thinking about it!!

The Texaco cars ran a standard dumpvalve on the cold side but had a metal brace around it to stop it blowing its self apart.
