I have one of these now. I made a video on TH-cam of it running. I ordered a RK-25 head from Irrigationking. It's the 61A design head from Western brass. Going to install it in there at some point.
when you do swap out the head, make sure to not over tighten it, i managed to snap the riser in one of the ones I have, oops. also I'd recommend removing the inlet filter as I've had a few of mine come loose and get stuck. you can remove the pop up assembly with a rain bird maxi paw wrench, although it's not an exact fit.
@sprinklercraft I usually just handtighten those. Unless it's brass buckner or rainbird then I use a wrench. I know those plastic risers can break easy

Nice popup! Seen one on ebay! I should get it and stick an Alpha II head inside! Did you get this one off ebay too?
actually i'm the one selling them on eBay. I found a guy on craigslist selling a ton of these. I had never seen them before
@@sprinklercraft Me either.
