A petcock only flows what is demanded of it by the carburetor(s). The Pingle is Capable of delivering a higher volume of fuel than the OEM. The factory petcock can deliver everything your Valkyrie can demand when working properly. However, any degradation of function and the factory unit can starve your engine of fuel in a high demand situation.

that's what I should've asked, volume. I'm running ported heads, modified air box and Viking exhaust.
so is the pingel only bottom lever? and is there any other companies with a side lever like oem?

I’m not sure that your modifications will cause a fuel demand that a OE petcock operating at 100% couldn’t support but I guarantee you anything less than 100% and you would expect trouble. I’ve had a Pingel for many years and the lever is not a problem for me. I recommend

I found the Pingel inlet and outlet I.D dimensions and basically they are the same as the OEM unit. so there wouldn't be any flow gain with the Pingel.
Thanks Chris
