Default Vendors - what arent you guys selling a PVC Mod ??

OK - if you guys can put together some hose and two clamps and sell a TB Bypass Kit - why arent you guys selling a PVC Mod kit yet?

I mean - there are some of us that are either too busy or lazy (me :lol:) to go run around to different parts stores for some rubber hose and filter..

I mean this would be an easy no brainer for alot of you and I am sure (like myself) you could fill quite a few orders.. :D

Any input?

Because the same guy that figured out he can buy a 97 cent trans line coupler and two 25 cent clamps and sell then for 15.00 is obviously too lazy run around to different stores and do it too :D :auto:

I could put a kit together for about $25.
One stop to home depot is all you need.
I am not a vendor though.

I'd be interested in a CUSTOM kit, which could be hidden underneath the valve cover, for an OEM look.
Those industrial-looking filters look like crap, and rather leave it the way it is than putting that on my engine. You don't need a pint-sized filter for half-teaspoon of oil.

Hopefully somebody will develop a nice kit in the future.

The shopping list looks like this.

1 - MP5138 Filter. Campbell Hausfeld
2 - Brass 3/8" barbed 1/4" NPT male fittings
1 - 1 foot of 3/8" id fuel line or vacum hose

That is how I did it anyway.
Just unplugged the hose from the intake and plugged the filter in.
Plugged the hose in the filter and connected other end to hose I pulled from intake.
Make sure the arrow on the filter points (flows) towards the intake manifold.
Others have used longer hoses to mount the filter in alternate locations.
This would give the "custom" stock look others were looking for.
You would not notice 2 extra plain black hoses under the hood and you could run it over by the headlight or something.
Here is mine.

Good luck.
