WTB -- PCV elbow

I need the PCV elbow in the passenger side valve cover, TPI motor.
It's a right angle connector, from the hose, to the valve cover gromet.

Check the HELP section of your local auto parts store... That's where I got mine (was supposed to be for a V8 but also worked on my V6). If it's not on the shelf, it's in the catalog they will have nearby. I think it was $5... It will probably cost you more to have it shipped from somewhere than to get a new one.

The part is NOT available from HELP or GM, or from anybody else. No one makes it. The corvette guys have the same problem, as the LB9 & L98 are basically the same motor.

Sorry, dude, but I BOUGHT ONE. Says right on the package it's for V8s. Don't remember the year range, but I know it exists.

Re: WTB -- PCV elbow

I made up something that looks "factory". I used a FORD help PCV elbow, which is 5/8". Used 6" of 5/8" hose. then a 5/8" to 1/2" reducer. And then 1/2" hose to the TB. So it's OEM configuration, just larger hose. GM uses 3/8" hose, with a 1/2" flare end.

Corvette central says it's going to reproduce the factory elbow. go onto the dorman help site, and look up ford pcv elbow.
