If one does this modification and does not want to use more the 1.6 gpf, then the water height in the bowl will have to be reduced. When that's done, the water column in the tank at the start of a flush will be lower than with the Champion valve, so there will be less pressure during the flush.
s I haven't measured the gpf I'm getting with this flush valve, perhaps that's a subject for another post. actually you can buy the flush valve and flapper from a eljer master repair distributer.... like: http://www.lockeplumbing.com/search.asp?key=ELJTIT&x=13&y=15 flapper sold seperately mine is on its way. Man, to think I've got those two titan tanks out on my back porch with no flush valves in them... Toto quality is much better than American Standard and Eljer. And you can buy inexpensive parts for the Toto at any Lowes Hardware. Thanks for asking... Nine months later, both of my eljer valves are holding up quite well. Good, solid flush every time. More importantly, there is NO LEAK! Contact the supplier you got the valve from and see if they can provide you the nut. I was not aware that the nut was sold separately. Let me know how it turns out!
The internet is great! I did exactly what was described and my American Standard Champion works great! No more leaks. Thanks,

I have 7 of these toilets in my house. One of the flush towers broke the other day. I called American Standard and they are FedEx-ing me the redesigned replacement. I sure hope I don't have to replace all 7, but they gave me a "Warranty number" if I do! I have never had any leaking problems with any of them.
