Stock Air Intake Question
Hello All, so my car came with a K&N CAI on it. I am putting on the stock one and I am having a slight issue with the vacuum line. First off, this hose certainly doesn’t seem to be the hose that would have came on the car as it’s a “fuel” hose and eat to long. Second, it doesn’t really go in, it just kind of sits there. Do I need a new hose or is there an adapter I am missing or something? Any help would be appreciated.

You are missing a piece on the stock exhaust; there should be 'nipple' that goes in the that hole on the intake and sticks out so the hose can slip over it. I installed the K&N CIA on my SS and know that air vent hose was replaced with the one provided with the new system. Unfortunately, I tossed the stock air filter system, along with the OEM air vent hose and the part you need.

The K&N system comes with it's own air vent hose; I believe the OEM air vent tube is made out of aluminum and it has the piece you're missing attached to it (if I remember correctly)

Not sure of the part number, but here's a picture of what it should look like (at least the end that goes into the air intake) …
