well I do not think this will work, I could get it hooked up, but it would be a hassle. The other issue is that I need it open most of the time and the current set up the default is closed. The actuators do not have any hold force when the power is removed. So I would need to come up with a spring set up or a lock mechanism to hold it open.

All this work for a faster warm up?

I might try some slots, with a 3/4" travel I can make some nice slots. This would still have 1/2 of the flow blocked but I might make a bypass area.

Ideas?
