I so badly need to recurriculate my BOV, but the issue has become finding a rubber hose that has a large enough inner diameter to work. Lowe's Speed and Home Depot Racing don't have it, and all that I could find at O'Reilly (where I have an account ) was a $7.99 a foot Ford heater hose (that is HUGE and looks gross) Anyone care to share any ideas? For the time being, I only need about 6" at the MOST.

Look in your local yellowpages for hydraulic stores. They should have what you are looking for.

Where in Lowe's? I looked in the plumbing and electrical section and found nothing.

Pepboys actually does have a decent supply of hosing for various aplications. I got fuel line hoses there cheap and easy, were the right size too.

Ohh man I can't remember what section it was in. But it's the tubing thats clear with white lines. But I'm guessing it was in Plumbing region.

I got my hose from Home Depot in the plumbing section. I believe this is the hose Drift Machine was talking about.

It was above my head on a shelf and I missed it several times when I first looked for it.
