Source for PCV hose
On my 74F100 and not quite the original motor, I'm looking for a molded rubber hose for my PCV valve, connecting the valve to the carburetor base plate. The only hitches are:
1. I have a 67 390 engine (from a Fairlane GT)
2. My carb is an Edelbrock 14063.
3. I use a year/application correct PCV valve for the 67 Fairlane, which comes straight up (doesn't make a 90 degree). I feel that is what should be kept for the engine.
The rubber hose would ideally have two 90 degree bends near each connection. Any ideas?

Get a piece of 3/8" steel brake line. Bend it into the shape you want and use a couple of short pieces of 3/8" hose to connect the steel line to the carb and PCV valve, that's what I did with mine.
If you want to do it really right, find a shop that can roll beads into the ends of the line. Or you could bend the line then send it to Inline Tube and have them duplicate it with the proper beads.

Dorman makes a whole series of PCV elbows. Maybe you could find a couple that would work. Here's one example, they have quite a few different versions, some with the same ID on both ends. Others, like the one pictured, have a different ID on each end.
