How I tossed my vacuum block and cleaned up intake

Was that a yes to it rubs the hood liner or a yes to the up pipe still fits good ?

yes it hits the hood liner. Up pipe just fits but will wear an impression in the hood liner. Factory vacuum block will not work with a 1" plenum spacer. It will dig into the hood itself.

That is AWESOME. Care to share the part numbers / breakdown?

I don't have the part#'s, but they are on Racetronix website. From right to left I have a #6 bulkhead fitting 90, a AN #6 120, #6 teflon line, #6 90 into a , Racetronix #6 check valve, and a #6 90 union.

I have done the same to clean up under the hood of my car as well. My setup requires a 1" plenum spacer in order for me to run a 4" air intake pipe underneath my intercooler pipe. I drilled and taped my 1" spacer for my vacuum lines and made my own pcv out of a Racetronix check valve, teflon lines and fittings. I really don't like the push lock stuff as I have never had them work properly for me without leaks. Teflon lines and fittings are bulletproof with vacuum lines, oil etc.

That is kick ass Mike.
 
It provides a signal to my vacuum brakes. Turns out, after I installed the engine, a cheaper straight barbed fitting worked better.
