Ok, how the heck did you get the drivers side pcv connector seperated? I notice everyone still used the factory 90 degree connector.
I for the life of me cannot get it seperated from the hose

hah ok, never mind, just REALLY had to pull HARD

Ok, all done. But with one disapointment.
Not enough hose left to do the overflow tank hose.
I used more with the JLTII intake to PCV. It requires more hose length, leaving me short on the tank hose

But I do have enough left over with Chrome ends for someone to do the fuel rail, and brake vacuum lines.

I have enough hose without ends for the big drivers side PCV.
Willing to trade for some 3/8 to do the overflow bottle.

Donna, I see you made it work with the JLT, what gives? you buy 3 hose kits vs 2?

Did you cut away the hose from the 90 deg fitting on the drivers side using a razor blade?

Newbie question here, is there a kit to do this? If not could you guys/gals hook me up so I don't have to re-do what you've already done. I want the blue connectors....

Here ya go...

First go here, http://www.powerflowracing.com/spectre-catalog.asp and select "Plumbing". Determine all the part numbers needed and then to Autozone web site. You can probably walk into an Autozone and pick up this whole kit and the fittings will be red and blue. I only wanted blue fittings so I bought the hoses and fittings seperately.

Each hose kit comes with 2 fittings (these are the blue and red ones)

5/16" line: http://www.powerflowracing.com/spect...ail.asp?PD=756. It's 48" long and you cut it to the size you need and slip the other clamp on. Need one of these.

3/8" line: http://www.powerflowracing.com/spect...ail.asp?PD=762. It's 36" long and you cut it to size also. Need two of these, and use the excess from one of them for the brake vaccum and buy an extra set of clamps.

5/8" line: http://www.powerflowracing.com/spect...ail.asp?PD=827. This one is 48" long and you cut it to size also. Need one of these as well.

The radiator overflow, passenger side PCV, fuel vaccum, and brake vaccum are 3/8", the fuel rail one is 5/16", and the big PCV on the driver's side is 5/8".

Trying to get all this new stuff done before new baby comes, and my first show in October......

I know what you mean. I have a two week old at home. Between him and the 4 1/2 year old girl, sure takes up a lot of time....Wouldn't change it for the world though...
