A question: The valves in Lart's pictures are piston valves, right?
How would a diaphragm valve work in the different orientations? Same issue?

I tried to change the orientation of the BOV what a PITA it hits the hood I guess I'll have to get new hoses.

As you can see it doesn't fit.
The Forge valve replaces a Lindsey valve. The Lindsey valve has shorter "Nipples" for the hoses to attach to.
It didn't fit 100% either, but I could get it attached.

I just went through EXACTLY what you are going through. I ended up using two 90 degree hoses and got everything to fit OK. I had to pull the j-pipe as far forward (towards the headlights) as I could to get the hoses to line up. I am seeing some interference between the headlight bucket and the air filter at the moment but think I can eliminate that with a little more adjustment. I'll take some pictures for you tonight.

Thanks Solo!
Looks good. I'll try that. 90º bends are easy to get. s-shaped hoses are not.
I was concidering rewelding the connector on the j-pipe, but I'm worried that it could mess up the MAF readings.
