ScubaPro tanks come with a convertable valve where it is yoke by default, or you can unscrew a small piece and make it a DIN valve.

As for the DOT + rating, there is pending DOT regulation that basically states, once a +, always a +. Basically by changing the Hydro pressure from 5/3 Operating pressure to 3/2 operation pressure (with the +) it works out to be less than 1% difference. Diverlink has an article on this, as well as a link to the DOT page. I posted a lengthy message is the recent past about tanks and I think I included a link to it there.
