"White-Rodgers has no suggested replacement for this item. You must contact the manufacturer of the equipment it was used on for a suggested replacement or retrofit.

Looks like you have some retrofitting/gas train rebuilding to do. If the old appliance is worth it, look into a universal gas valve, ignitor, module perhaps.

Then most any gas valve of that type, Honeywell, White-Rogers, etc., should work if the face-to-face dimensions are the same and the pipe-size connections are the same. Hopefully, there is one or more unions to facilitate valve removal and replacement.
Use pipe dope on the connections. I would replace the thermocouple while you're at it.
By the way, why are you replacing the valve?

Its fixed
Guess I overreacted with the whole gas valve thingy. I did some further testing and determined that it was just the thermocouple. Sometimes I can be such a ditz. Anywho, thanks for all you advise.
