GM Big Block PCV Hose Still Available New
(
1 2
)
(Preview)
Every so often an oddball little part is still available from GM for our old cars. This is one of them. I ordered it last week because I didn't like a piece of straight bulk PCV hose, it takes too big an area to get from the carb to the PCV valve in the left valve cover. This hose, as you can see, has a nice molded...
