Can someone post a picture of how the heater valve mounts in the engine compartment. From different pics and the manuals I've figured out the hoses, but don't see where to anchor the valve. Thinking of making a support to go onto one of the head bolts.
With your late model 1275 you will need to drill and maybe tap the hole at the left corner of the head Richard, then you can insatall the simple heater valve unless you kept the later model bottom hose set up which has a take off that installs under the thermostat housing.

The later valves, which I believe you have, were simply mounted "in-line" and not mounted to anything that I can see. I will try to find my picture and post.
edit: Not a great pic I know...but you can see the valve mounted in the upper right of pic.
