1969 TA vent tube
 

Need some help, I need the vent tube that fits in the valve cover passenger side that connects to the lower ram air pan. I have tried Ames, Firebird Central and Year One. No one has the vent tube for the 69 TA set up. They all have one for a ram air firebird but not TA. Does anyone know any other options for me to explore?

I need one also.Tom

That's pretty strange they offer it for the Bird, rather than the T/A
Whole lot more 69 T/A's out there - and being done as clones - than there are actual RamAir 69 Birds.

Good Luck to you guys
71 Ford LTD might be usable

(sorry , that was a bad joke)

This isn't the tube?

Unfortunately its not,,,thats actually the one I ordered that doesn't fit

And, you're using the hose too?

Aren’t the lower pans the same in the T/A and the ram air cars?

Yes...bought it the same time I bought the tube and valve cover grommet, The tube is the issue.

Too short then?

I am going to ck it again but it seems too long and its bent for a different hook up. Even the short part that inserts in the valve cover seems odd.

I am going to play with it again about noon. Googling pictures of the engine bay showa a very simple tube with only one bend, looks simple but,,,,,

Yes it’s the same tube and rubber hose

Mine is close to being right,just not perfect.Tom

Thanks for the pics, let me look at this again and see what I can do.

Appreciate everyones help.

HELD for Ransom...thanks for all the pics, convinced me I had the most correct one and with a bit of mods I got it to work, I was scared to really twist the tube into the valeve cover very deep for fear of hitting a rocker . Once I saw these pics of an orig tube I just decided to twist and let it almost bottom out.

Thanks again for the help.
Is your 69 back on the road?

They're all scared to make them the best they can be.



I don't have one. Pictures are from the barn find 69 thread.
