Or search for Earl's Pro-Lite 350 hose. That is what I have, I got it and fittings off Summit.

Kick ass, can I just slide this hose over a nipple and use a standard hose clamp?

Shane, where can I get these pushlock fittings you speak of?

Of course this goddamn braided nylon hose is $50, it will replace like $5 worth of hose I have in there now.....throwing fittings on top of that will probably double that in a hurry!

Scheides, you can use it just as normal hose if you'd like also, but I wouldn't just put clamps on a fuel line personally.

Here's another source for a different kind also. Not sure if it's NHRA legal to use it as Fuel Line, but you can use it as vacuum hose...
www.mcmaster.com : Type in p/n: 5394k and then click on the Buna-N link on the left. It'll end up being the 2nd to last product on that catalog page. We used that for all the vacuum hose on my buddies Civic. It's also what I plan on using on my car as well.

(PS if you order some off McMaster, let me know because maybe we can combine our order to save on some shipping costs).

As for Push-Lock, didn't your alky kit use those kind of connections? They are great, very easy to work with. Just push it on the fitting, and that's it. You can find those fittings on Summit or Jegs also. Push-lock is also commonly called Socketless, Push-Loc, Twist-Tite... each brand sometimes has their own little name for it.

Ya, I'll have to search around for some push-locks, otherwise I think just standard hose clamps will work dandy, this is just the valvecover/crank vent/catch can system, not my fuel system.

Its to make it look perty.

Well if you order that vacuum hosing of McMaster with the braided covering(it is pretty nicely priced actually), let me know if I can add to your order to help save on shipping. I want to use it for my catch can setup, and also on my boost controller.

I just joined the cool kids club!



I can't really tell if I got much of a power gain or gas mileage because I did a few little things at once and never really kept great track of that stuff in the first place, but my idle is a lot smoother and I did replace the small amount of blow by I had with a small amount of suction instead. Overall, satisfied.

How old is your stock PCV?

Welcome to the club, Brian!

I've never replaced it. So at least 3 years old. I'd guess that it's the stock one actually because the kid before me didn't know much and I doubt he'd know when to change the pcv valve haha

My skillz aren't that amazing, I'm still bummed with how that one side of the lid turned out Seriouslly let me know if you ever need it redone.

No its fine. The can is wedged in there so tight the little areas you can see look great.

Just so people know, the KV's were done in "mirror black" and the catch-can was done in "mirror black" with a coat of clear over the top.

[HiImBrian]

what the heck?! I want black ones!!!

Anyone who wants powdercoating talk to Brandon/Halon! He does good work and I'm sure he will do it fairly cheap.

Scheides I was going to tell you I picked up a bunch of that nylon braided line from McMaster Carr. It's fairly stiff, but nice stuff. Makes things look a lot nicer. I'll put up some pics when I have some.
