Looking at gast's specs:
http://www.gastmfg.com/rocr.html

they use Pxxx and Vxxx in the 71/72 models (which i think is what Joe was listing on his site) to indicate compressor and vacuum respectively. They also don't rate them for the "other" use...

But obviously i can pull a vacuum with a compressor... Sorry for my ignorance, but is there a reason one would not want to do reverse the flow from the intended design?

thx in advance
