arc 4000 w/2 compressors

[charger]

bought a used arc 4000 system, got it working right now but just want to know if i hooked the air lines properly, i have the two compressors side by side, line coming out of both compressors to a tee, then from the tee the line goes to my air distribution block, both blocks are connected to each other (4 way valve) at the other end of the block (arc 4000 instructions show a 1/4 plug) there was another air connector so i led a line to the tank, i ended up with one extra fitting on my tank that was not being used( tank has 2 ports) didn`t have a plug but i had an extra tee so i installed a tee in the manifold to tank line and led them to both fittings, if this is all correct i will remove the tee and plug the extra fitting to my tank. any suggestions??

So you have:
compressors to valves, valves to tank

It'll work like that, but I prefer to run it like this:
compressors to tank, tank to valves, valves to air springs

The problem with your installation is when you air the vehicle up the air flows from the tank to the valves. If the compressors kick on when you are inflating, the valves now have to try to push air into the tank. The air is actually flowing in two directions and fighting each other inside the valve block.

If you have it set up like I suggested, when the vehicle is inflated the air is flowing from the tank to the valves. When the compressors kick in the air is flowing from the compressors, to the tank, then to the valves all in one direction.
