When you say your valve is 1/4", are you referring to the dimensional measurement of the port, or the NPT size of the port? A 1/8" NPT port is dimensionally about 0.25". The <R72(C)> port size requirement is in terms of NPT size, not dimensional size. As near as I can tell (from SMC SY Master Catalog ES11-57), the SY3000 series is not available in a 1/4" NPT (neither base nor body-ported varients).
