We used to sell both the VH40 and VH44. The 44 has a slightly higher boost
ratio and works very well on a BJ8. They are available on Amazon.com

Seems that the two most usual substitutes are Lockheed or PBR, the
latter being Australian. I'd heard much better reports for the PBR
so I looked out for one of them. They are very rare, if sold at

Works well. I like it. Their model code, for my BT7 at least, is
VH40. I checked that with PBR.<br>
