I saw a few items in a Google search where guys had converted their
full-size G5RV into a T antenna on 160m. It had something to do with
adding
the obligatory counterpoise and shorting the feedline. This would turn
the
antenna from a horizontal radiator to a vertical radiator.
Anyone have any info on this? Or can you refer me to a source?

When I lived on a suburban lot, I phased my G5RV against a ~100-foot tall
insulated base tower. I had two unidirectional patterns and two
bi-directional patterns from that system.
