Johnnie not sure about the combo you mean but yes, by choosing the 2 liters and the 3 liters tank in combination with 12" and 18" plus slow and medium nozzle...you can't do wrong...
Remember, basically each grain, featured for a particular chamber length and tank combination can be run at various speeds, just by changing nozzle and injectors accordingly.
For example the L369 sparky turns into a L1222 or the K404 into a K777 just by exchanging the 1/8" presslocks against 3/16th and the medium instead the slow nozzle...this gives you a great flexibility for each grain to choose out of 3 speeds (there is also a fast nozzle), depending on wheather/wind or rocket weight... I wish AT or CTI would deliver such a flexibility.. Personnaly I would not go for the sparkies in 75mm, with much respect for contrail. They are not really comparable with incredible sparkies "2" available in 54mm or 38mm... but in 75mm I would strongly recommend the black smoke for heavy thrust (and a nearly red flame and black smoke!) or the black gold (less push but lovely yellow flame and white smoke). I dream from sparky "2" in 75mm but Tom said it is simply too expensive to produce...
Next you will really enjoy the easy way of mounting and maintaining the motors..just a few tools, very solid and precise machining. just do not forget to grease everything really a lot...your motor will thank you...and you will definitely need to buy the anchor point(s) (forged eye bolts 3/16th) for the top of the tank (also available at McMasters for you, the bastards refuse to sell to Germany!). Just screw it and attach your chutes...or recovery devices..so simple and so safe...if you need I have engineered "bones" of steel that fit above the 2 holes so you can attach more devices...or ask Jason, he posted a very nice anchor point solution in this thread just above...very lovely indeed.
Now let's talk about GSE's... of course you can build your own with little knowledge in electronic and hydraulic. BUT if you want to fly ..go for one of the 2 you mentioned... Personnaly I was hesitating between the 2 vendors but Doug Pratt made me such a great offer ...I could not resist. I believe that Black Dog may be of more valuable materials but the cheap and light red plastic box from Doug works just well...So I went for the full specs GSE from him, oversize solenoids, all options, etc... One custom made change for me: the remote control device. I asked for a long distance one. I can run it with 100 yards of cable! You will love the security distance and the chance to see your bird flying from a more normal angle... His GSE remote control unit offers you all comfort you can ask: fill & dump remotely, security key to avoid hazardous manipulations. It is NOT radio controlled but...you can not disturb the signal with a cable...just a mess to roll each time *lol*..the price for more security... His GSE runs with 12 or 24v depending on your ignitors. here we run 12v, just one battery. By the way, do not "save" at the wrong place. Buy a good solid maintenance free car battery. The solenoids need a lot of current to work properly. I made once the bad experience...
Now the only critic on Doug's GSE was the "cheap" fill line. I simply believe it was not appropriate and after les than 10 starts it just exploded...now I have a german hydraulic cable, heavy rubber with Steelflex and teflon tube inside. Just "panzer"-grade.. even when I fill the biggest tank..the cable just do not move a centimeter from the place...Now I heard from Doug he changed his cable after I complained..now I do not know how are the new ones...I loved Doug customer service, such a friendly supplier, always happy to help.
Now one last idea. if you buy a stock dominator from Gary you may have some headache with the booster length (40"/53"!!!)and recovery deployment design that may move to the NC...not sure you can run that....so ask Gary, he may cut you the nice bird just as long as you need...certainly at costs but I learned from my last experiences that Proline is a great supplier with very reasonable pricing for not really reasonable customers like you and me *lol*...better ask before too late!
Hope this helps
