Default PCV connector

Well I went and did it, I now own a 92 ZR 1 #178, but I already have a problem.

The rubber connector that connects the two PCV valves to a vacuum tube is too lose and I have a bad vacuum leak. I called around and found out that Chevy discontinued the piece awhile back. My man even called a place in Wisconsin but their out to.

If anyone has any suggestions I could sure use them, I have a makeshift setup right now but it looks bad. Thanks in advance. Jim

Congratulations!

You don't need the whole package. Pieces you are talking about are "F" shape and "ㅛ" shaped pieces.

I am indicating URL for illustration purpose.

I am sure someone will chime in and suggest the best vendor to turn to. Or you can contact white racing products.

I am running his chip for 94 and couldn't be happier.
I understand that he is one of the best for ZR-1s.

Might want to get the whole hose assembly, chances are over the years with heat the hose itself is dry & cracked, leaking

Just want to say Congrats on your new toy!

And add another two cents for just buying the parts Phil is talking about. I did it for my 90 and the fit is great and you'll see that there will be no more vacuum leaks from that part of the PCV system....for a long while!
