PVC Hose?
Hey what all you boys using for the formed PVC Hose that connects the valve to the adapter under the carb? The truck I'm working on is a '70 w/ a 302 2bbl carb. Old one is shot. It is double crooked on the valve end to clear the oil bath air cleaner. Thanks!

I’ve always wondered about reproductions on those. But there were so many variations. I’ve never bothered to search.
I’ve always made my own out of 3/8 inch metal tube, with rubber fuel line for couplers. Problem is all of those were for aftermarket setups, where the carburetor had the appropriate 3/8” fitting.
I seem to remember the carb spacer fitting being larger than 3/8 tube would stretch around. So I don’t have an answer for you, but wish you luck finding something!
Got a picture of your existing set up just for those of us not familiar with your exact version with the oil bath?
