Hey, can anyone tell me what this vaccuum line on the transmission is and where it connects? Ive been searching endlessly.. It seems theres a one-way valve on it maybe? :wtf2: http://ep.yimg.com/ty/cdn/yhst-86124750 ... ranny1.jpg This is the rb25 btw.. is this line critical?

Yes it is a critical line, but it is only a vent line. It bolts up towards the top front of the transmission so when it heats up, the transmission fluid doesn't burp out of it. Gotta keep it mounted high, but not connected to anything. The 180 degree bend is the end of it and it is left pointing downwards. Make sense?

Your pic just jogged my memory. The bracket on the vent line mounts to the top bolt in the transmission bell housing. Hold it up there and you'll see how it fits.
