  The nicest made manual selectors that Ive seen are the Andair

selectors. See:

http://www.andair.co.uk/selector/duplex.htm

  You may have to call ACS to get a price.

Mike Wills

The Andair duplex valve is $419 in the Aircraft Spruce 2000 catalog
page 156.

The left/right/off single system valve is $189.

BTW Mike, If your tanks are cross connected with a simple line
I see no need to return the fuel to more than one tank.
The only thing you need to worry about is a slip toward
a near empty tank.

Come to think about it there is no reason why a T will not work
in the return line. The returned fuel will go to the tank
with the lowest level automatically. The T can be in the cross
connect line. No duplex valve required. I cannot think of a
situation where this will not work.

 *Please* don't do this.  It's a formula for disaster.  Think we discussed
this one some time ago.
