SO are you saying that if I kept the UHF elements the same orientation but stacked vertically I would end up with the same gain but keep the 70 degree HPBW? I think that would suit me based on my report!

Yes, more or less the same.

Looking at the installation manual I think I can stack the loop elements and have the combiner bar connections on the loops facing each other and maybe this would still allow the combiner bars fit right up?

No. You cannot do it with the C4 combiner without really messing up the engineering of the phasing bars.
You'd either have to start with two C2 antennas and make a combiner (out of coax cables and a two port splitter, for example) or, if you have a C4, use standard baluns (matching transformers) to match to the same homemade combiner.
