Default heater control valve

After fighting leaking caps,cracked pressure bottles and finally a weeping radiator, i changed over to a 3 core all metal open cooling system on my 89.

part of that was swapping over to a new heater control valve from a 92 model.

everything would be perfect if not for the stupid heater valve leaking whenever it feels like it. this is third one i have tried....

does anyone make a metal one? or a better design? or am i better off modifying my original closed system one?
