Put 408 in, forgot a hose! Help
Put 408 in, forgot a hose! Help I forgot to put on the hose running from the back of the intake to the brake booster. 
Any easy ways to get this thing on with the engine installed? Is it critical to have it fully seated with the clamp on?

It sucks,but if I were you I'd pull the intake and make sure it gets put on right.If it does pop off your gonna have one hell of a vacumn leak and also loose your power brakes do to the vacumn being lost.
Like someone else said if you can use a regular clamp and maybe a 1/4" ratchet with a socket you might be able to get it secured.

I wondering if it wouldnt be easier to just loosen the 4 cradle bolts and remove the steering shaft bolt and lower the whole assembly like two inches. Two inches, I really should not have to worry about anything snagging or anything.

You could have pulled the intake in the time it takes to start this thread, read the posts and comtemplate how you will attach the hose. 
If not, you will need a small pair of needle nose vice grips to keep constant pressure on the clamp to force the clamp into place. Then you need to lay down on the engine to get your arm in place. You might want to remove the hood seal on the cowl to prevent those plastic knubs from digging into your arm.

Verdad Gallardo Seriously..........I dont know why I try to half *** everything. Well, it took about five minutes to remove the steering bolt and drop one side of the cradle down two inches using the four cradle bolts. I was able to push the hose all the way on to the intake, but then figured it would be GOOD ENOUGH. REtard. I need to buy a hose clamp tomorrow for my throttle body bypass so I will pick up another one and stick it on the hose on the intake.
DUMBASS ...............Im going to the bar!
