As for those balance tubes, have you seen these?

I fully agree they can't hurt (allebit they may not help either  :) ) and will add that one could easily drill and tap the standard cover(s) to accept a right angle brass fitting with a small hose nipple. I've seen it done before.

Heck, even the newer style plastic quick change covers could be carefully drilled/tapped in the same manner.

Eric, you can drill a standard set of covers, I`ve done it several times. I used brake tubing and drilled the hole undersize . Just tapped the tube in and never had any problem, you could also Loctite it in for added security.
