Can someone better explain this step, I get everything else but this I dont understand. It says to cut part of it but the picture doesnt look cut at all![LS1 to LS6 PCV swap-old_new_pcv_hose.jpg](https://ls1tech.com/forums/attachments/new-ls1-owners-newbie-tech/238088d1469146146t-ls1-ls6-pcv-swap-old_new_pcv_hose.jpg)
Now, the intake manifold and air intake is all reinstalled. Your engine is totally complete, EXCEPT ONE THING. The new PCV hose. Since we removed the stock hose, we need to re-install some sort of PCV setup. The PCV valve will pull off the end of the stock PCV hoses. We'll need to reuse this for the new setup. Once its pulled off, we'll need some way to join some 5/16" rubber fuel line to it, which means we need a coupler. You either need to buy a 3/8" coupler from the autostore, or use the dremel to cut off a 1.5" long section of the stock plastic pipe to use as a coupler.
Once you've got the pcv removed, and a 1.5" piece of plastic coupler, you should be able to use that to attach a 10" piece of 5/16" rubber fuel line to the PCV valve, as shown in the picture.
Thanks for the help
