SB100 Hose connections
I have so far successfully registered two cars through the entire SB100 process and was never able to locate any special "PCV" or "Smog" hose and just used good ole fuel line or yes, believe it or not for the breather side, heater hose!! I just made sure to wipe the hoses down with Goof Off to remove any existing labeling on the hoses and had absolutely no problems getting through the BAR Referee at Golden West College in Huntington Beach. All the referee wanted to see was that I had a closed loop system in place with the PCV valve in the valve cover connected to vacuum on the carb (used fuel line for that one) and a closed breather cap on the other valve cover with a heater hose connection to the base of my open air cleaner. Again, I have done this successfully with both my Superformance Cobra and a 1932 deuce highboy. Guess what happened to that heater hose connection to the breather cap about two seconds after I got home from the Referee? "Gone like a '59 Cadillac"!!
