Thom,

The short answer is "sometimes."

 There were some 72s, especially the older ones, with an oddball thread.
The
newer ones I have seen have the same 3/4-14 thread as most low pressure
tanks.

 The real question is "Why screw around with that piece of crap manifold?"
You're just going to throw it away later anyway.  There are several
outfits selling pretty good dual output manifolds for about $150.  The Sea
Elite is a bit more and the Halcyon is a bit more yet.

 Don
