quick question
 
I'm in the process of swapping over a fast 92 on my car (99 so it does not have the LS6 style crossover). My question is do I need to buy the LS6 coolant cross over "kit" or can I buy some 1/4 inch coolant or fuel hose and just cut the lines and clamp the hose on? I am also planning on doing the same to the rear instead of just capping it off. The way I see it, as long as the hose doesnt collapse it should be fine correct? This is just for air in the system right?

Also, when I was pulling the intake some trash fell in to the valves. Nothing huge, just some dirt and grit. Somehow a squirrel or mouse got in there I assume. Is this a mojor concern, and how should I go about getting it cleaned out?

Thanks in advance,
Josh

I guess you could try to use hose and clamps,, I just bought the front pipe assembly and used the rear caps like fast reccommended. If you have the room to do it, I dont see why not.
as far as getting the junk out of the top of the valve chamber,, I would use a SHOP vac,, just put it on the runner and let it go, It will get the junk out of there Then, cover up all the other runners, and hit it with compressed air, you should be good to go.

Please clean your valves before running the motor :nod:
