Jason,
Since you lengthened both of them, where did you run them to?? I was just
going to lengthen each enough so that I could run both and mount both next
to each other on a spot somewhere on the firewall.
I am thinking of just using some type of vent assembly or one-way filter for
the ends, instead of the stock caps. But it is good to know the stock ones
are re-usable. Those hose you are using, is it more of a thick fuel hose
type tubing or more like a thinner more flexible silicon tubing? Thanks
alot!
