Just something to add to this thread for the DIY'ers. I am getting ready to do this mod and finding a 5/8" barb locally is a PITA. I have found 3/4" PEX valves which is a 3/4" barbed ball valve with a full port configuration. A lot of ball valves actually reduce the port by as much as 25% so you need to pay attention to what you are getting to avoid over heating. The PEX valves are brass construction with stainless ball and handle which is ideal for marine use. Here is a link to get them for $4.50, way cheaper than anything else I have seen. http://www.pexuniverse.com/3-4-pex-brass-ball-valve
