Valve replacement ? - Majja - 04-04-2007

Well I am sitting here in Chicago doing absolutely nothing at work (computer nerd here) I was left to surf the web all day until I come home and come upon these

And got thinking is it possible to replace my Boston Valves with them?
Or would it be a bigger PIA than it is worth.

Thanks
Majja

Boston valve mounting is different. I doubt it would fly.
I did find this- Is it the same as what you have?

What i was really hoping to accomplish was mounting them flush instead of the sticking up. I still have mine and they are good just bugs the way they stick up. Thanks for the links though it is good to know there are some out there a hell of a lot cheaper than at Creek Company.

If you ever do figure out a way to make those valves flat please share. Love the tube hate the valve placement.
