    Adams stock valve trough or grime gutter

    A new section mate of mine has an Adams E2. He just bought this a little over a month ago. Last night he noticed my valve trough on my M5050 and said he wished he knew where he could get the stock valve trough for his horn since his didn't come with one (he bought his lightly used). I told him I would try searching, but couldn't find even a picture. I suspect the metal model is similar to what Besson has with the spring clip inside to hold against the 2nd valve. Any help in this matter will be appreciated. TIA.

    Adams makes one that is as you described, a metal tube with keyhole slots and a metal spring to help hold it. You can see it in the photo of my new horn (it's the same one I had from the old horn). I assume an Adams dealer could get one easily enough.
