Bill,
My experiments and measurements were done assuming only one tilt cylinder and when in a level condition the cylinder was extended 50% of its stroke. The 3" of tilt corresponds to moving the cylinder 3" in either direction after being centered. There is more to the tilting than just moving the arms in one direction. Other factors include the movement range of the swivel in the ball socket, length of the top link, length of the side links, and the 3pt pins/top link spacing.
By using a single cylinder that has a 10"-11" retracted length BEFORE adding the end forks and a 4" stroke you will be able to closely approximate the Kubota factory geometry and still get more than adequate tilt.
Making the lower arms level with a tilt link has been, in my experience, easy. I use 1/4" hoses that restrict flow and I can very quickly and smoothly level the implement with a short stroke of the spool lever. It does not have to be EXACT, just within a 1/4" or so. As for gaining additional lift height, that would depend on the length of the top link since the 3pt lift arms can only go so high themselves. By shortening the side links you can only go so far before the top link tops out when the 3pt is at max height. Its all in the geometry.
BTW, I did a leak down test yesterday of the tilt and top link cylinders. After 12 hours there was no noticeable leak down which tells me that the check valves were functioning as advertised.
It would be interesting to see if your 2 cylinder strategy is really an advantage. At a cost of about $200+ including spool, hoses, fittings, extra cylinder, forks, etc. I would find it hard to believe that it could be justified on an ROI basis. I would rather spend the money on another implement, like a spreader. BTW, with an additional spool, the Prince SV valve will not fit in the same position as mine is. You really have to look at the big picture here as mounting space must be factored in along with hose configuration and who knows what else.
