PCV Hose

[Redfalken]

Does anyone know if they sell a preformed pcv hose for my `68 200? Here's a photo of what it looks like:

I've replaced it with some generic hose but it's kind of bulky. Thanks...

I am not sure that it was pre-formed to start with. Time, heat make the 35 year old hose pretty stiff.

That could very well be! I just see the ones for the V8 all the time on eBay and they are pre-formed. Mine just seems so bulky but maybe I can cut off a few inches since it's been on about 6 months now. It may have relaxed a little.

You could also buy the correct diameter and type of hose, cut it and use a 90 angle (plastic or metal) connection to keep it close to the valve cover.

Thanks Steve-O. That's a good idea. I wonder if there's a PCV valve where the hose barb comes out at a 90 degree angle.

Anyone know what makes a PCV valve specific to an engine?
