Vacuum hose kit

1585 Views 14 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  cbxer55
Does anyone sell a vacuum hose kit that would include most of the stock lines for a gen 2 L? I was just wondering because I am in the process of cleaning my I/C and thought it would be an easy time to just replace the hoses since it is a 99 with 90k miles.

If not, where do you guys order the hoses from?

Thanks, Jeff

Man, if sombody does, I believe they would be out of inventory when everyone sees this thread...I will be watching this thread...
why not just make your own kit using available hoses from the parts house??
I deleted most of the vac lines on my motor and replaced the rest with thick walled silicone vac lines from ..... http://www.siliconeintakes.com/index.php?cPath=18&osCsid=d39a1c1e9250d18c2ee8932edc7cc581
Nice quality and resonable price. Be aware that some of the hose are vac and boost, I left the original hard lines in those areas.
I also changed all the hard line PCV hoses to heavy duty heater hose.

I was wondering if a kit was available because it would save time of piecing everything together and money if you bought it as a kit. Also if a kit was available from one of the vendors it would take the guessing out of getting the right hoses and hopefully the quality of OEM or better would be there too.

How do you know what sizes to get, for example not all of the diameters on the vacuum lines are the same.
I bought 10ft of 4mm hose and that covered what I needed. The rest are too big and they lose there rigidity as they bet bigger. Like I said, I deleted most of it (egr delete, vac res tanks,etc...)
I asked Eric the part number to this one time, but have deleted my PM's since then. The part was $43.00 IIRC. Maybe he can shed some light on the topic.

You might try LMR.com Late Model Restoration, they have a lot of Lightning stuff. Got my PCV hose & valve assembly there.

Prices?
Tim failed to mention his beautiful heater hoses. Which are considerably shorter than the stock spaghetti parts, and can hardly be seen by the naked eye with the hood open. And yes, his PCV hoses are great. The IAC hoses comes with a 180 elbow on it that routes the hose around behind the blower, instead of under the snout. Don't forget his intercooler hoses, which eliminate the hard lines on the passenger side of the blower.
