First, I do not have a raptor petcock, In fact I have no idea what kind of petcock it is,, But the important thing to note is that there is no vacuum connection on it.


Hey Boogieman if your petcock has no vacuum connection it's definitely not stock and most likely a Raptor/Raptor knock off. If not your tank was modified to fit another petcock or you somehow found another direct fit petcock!  Cheesy

ROFL ok I'm imposing a new rule on myself, if I get on the forums and read before my coffee I'm no longer allowing myself to post till I return later post caffeine   Cheesy  

Thanks for the PM Boogieman telling me that you don't have a stock tank.....next time please just post here and put me in my proper place by embarrassment   Grin   (to slightly redeem myself I posted after reading the petcock post, but prior to looking at the pic post heh)

VS800 petcock is also manual and a direct fit, It just costs a ton of money.  Wink

Went around today looking for a new filter and the best I found was another emgo that had the same darn lip as mine. Guess i'm waiting for my filter to arrive.

Could someone please do me a favor and post a picture of the stock savage petcock? I keep finding nothing but muddled versions of one with a fat nob or one that looks exactly like the raptor. Also i've read the original doesn't have an off position? Hence why i believe mine is a raptor.

Sure as shite I guess the guy did install a raptor. Just about the only thing he did that made any sense. Thanks man.
