Lol so it just unglugs in front and back and the ground? Does the 3/8 fuel line go over the cut or do you take off that part of the hose?

First rip the old crap off. Buy 4 feet of 3/8s fuel line, a 3/8s plastic T connector, and a truck PCV valve (look up the number for an 03 Silverado). You will need to use some of the hardlines so cut accordingly. I ran one line from the drivers side valve cover to the passenger side head, then a small section from the passenger side cover to the hose coming from the drivers side. Connect them with the T fitting, then run a section of hose to the stock PCV location. The rest is self explanatory. Should run you around 20 bucks if you need a new grommet like I did, if not you should pay around 10

The rest looks fine so can i just do a 2 inch 3/8 fuel line. Do i just take off that small part and slip the 3/8 over?
