I have made what looks like a sweep tee in a main trunk line. I am wondering if it will work better than a tap. I will send a picture as soon as i figure that out!

Another way to get it up there in the post is you can email it to me and I'll put it there for you:)

Nice job. That will definitely do better than a fitting tapped into the side. I also like the radius on the sweep which will also add to better airflow.
