Heater Valve Source

I'm looking for heater flow valve similar to this style/design. Most common seems to be straight through flow design with the control cable positioned in line with the hose. Would like one with the cable operating position 90 degrees from the hose.
Thanks
Bob

What year truck, what kind of heater? Fresh air or recirculating?

John, not quite but close. I believe the hose from the motor needs to be on the opposite side. Otherwise the cable would enter from the wrong side requiring the cable to loop 180 degrees to the clamp. If I can't find one, might be able to fabricate/reposition the cable mounting clamp and valve handle to make it work. Thanks for your help.

I was looking at the valve I took off the truck I've got and it is a little different than that one I posted, it's clocked with the straight out from the mounting point , cable came out through the firewall right beside it. I'll take a picture tomorrow and get it posted here..
