does the hose from the filler neck to tb need to be connected?

what size is the fuel pressure fitting on the line?

some guy said its ok to put small little filter on pcv valve, is that ok?

there is a little broken rod from my front sway bar that connects to the a-arm, lol what is that little rod called?

Yes, if you run MAF, you need the oil filler to TB line. It is probably 5/16" but might be 3/8".

Filter is ok.

If the rod is at the end (on the LCA), it is an end link.

Good luck.

No, they don't actually tie the sway bar down .. they're more of a novelty .. you might as well pull the one off the other side to save weight

Couped, I will respectfully disagree for a non-track car. And if he has one side hooked and one not, that can create some issues then and there.

A new end link kit is like what, 20 bucks........ Be sure the suspension is loaded when you snug the end-link bolts.

Good luck.

If you're talking about putting a closed filter like an oil seperator in line with the PCV valve still hooked up to the intake manifold then yes it's okay. However, if you're talking about using an open air breather filter on the PCV valve (or the valve cover) no it's a bad idea. I second what Hissin' said, the fitting is 5\6" or 3\8". 5\16 tubing is really snug and I used hose clamps on m 3\8" tubing in order to secure it so take your pic. I think the stock piece is a 5\16" hose with 3\8" connectors on the ends.

If you look at the original questions asked, you'll see why JT wrote the answers the way he did.
