there you go. 50 dollars to Windsor ON, and your problems are over. In the meantime plug the hole in the tube, and put a fine nylon sock on the hose ( its fresh air inlet for the PCV) and the car will be fine while you wait for the stock tube to show up.

I would buy a Russell fuel rail adapter fitting that has a -6an male on the other end. Drill and tap a -6an female on the intake. Put some sort of glue or epoxy so that the fitting will not back out. I forgot what imperial thread that -6an has.

He is probably just gonna buy my zzp tube and k&n drop-in filter...
If not, i would suggest you buy a new one and save the hassle of trying to fix a plastic part.

Go wonky and you will need a tune. If you are prepared for that, fine , but it is not plug and play

I totally understand what some of you are saying, but i had my zzp tube/ k&n filter untuned for 3 months and had no issues..i honestly did not notice a difference at all.
But heck, if he can fix it for a dollar, then so be it.

Those plastic nipples are so fragile. When I had my Victory Redy 09 Sedan, the dealership broke it twice. They covered it once, I payed around $50 for a used one off a member here. I should of have spent $40 more for a permanent solution by ZZP, but I spent 20k more for a mustang haha. Brass fittings ftw.

Thanks for great suggestions. Not sure if I'll go with an aftermarket intake or tap it with a fitting. I'm a pipefitter by trade, so that shouldn't be too hard...
And thank you for that link, Sox-fan.
For now I put a bunch of electric tape to hold it together while I decide on what I'll do...

there is a new part that reduces the side load that the stainless line puts on the plastic nipple. check it out on CED.
Engine Crankcase Ventilation Tube 12612790 12635643
$34.37. + shipping , a lot more than sox fans solution.
