    Hi,
    Can somebody help me with the correct outer diameter of th venting hose?

    I believe it is the same diameter like the venting hose from the valve cover to the manifold on GT350 ...but not sure..at least the clamp looks like!

    It should be a 5/16 ID fuel hose

    Thank you COBRAMAN19!
    Are you familiar with the R-Model?
    May I ask you some more questions?

    E.g. correct engine mounts...because my carb plenum has not enough room under the hood (1/2 inch missing - can‘t close the hood)

    Following parts are assembled:
    - 289
    - HiPo C5ZZ Engine mounts from Scott Drake
    - 66 Cobra Intake
    - 715 lemans carb
    - R-Model hood from Jim Cowles

    Yes, I do have exactly these HiPo engine mounts from NPD.
    I will investigate the engine mounts parts to verify the difference vs the 64/65 version...
    - Casting bracket to frame
    - lower bracket
    - insulator
    - upper bracket
