Well, I am still chasing a high idle issue, so I thought I would replace the dual PCV boot. When the car was idling and you moved the boot it hissed pretty bad. Although Kurt Whites price is not bad at $35+, mine is El Cheapo about $8 with a new PCV included.


The Napa PCV for the ZR-1 has a plastic elbow attached, I combined this with a T I got from O' Reilly's autoparts and here we are:

Fit is very tight on the PCVs:

I also contacted Gates hoses to try to find a F tube that might work!

Need to trim, but I used a scaple and no issues, cut at the breaks and it looks like it came that way.

I agree, nice process! :thumbsup:

The whole set up from Kurt is not cheap, but it works way better than the OEM stuff does after 20 yrs.
