Vapor Separator
« on: August 21, 2006 - 04:52:21 AM »
Hi,
I am new in your Forum - I am a Mopar enthusiast from Switzerland, owning a MN 1970 AAR Cuda and a MN 1970 Challenger R/T 383ci. Both cars were imported from LA to Switzerland. For the 1970 Challenger R/T 383ci I am missing the original vapor separator (in the trunk). The gas tank has 4 exit lines and parallel to the fuel line runs a second line to the breather on top of the right valve cover.
What kind of vapor separator do I need? Where can I get one? How are the lines connected (rubber tubes? clips? clamps?)?

Thanks for your help!
Regards,
Karl

unless the cali cars were different [I know they wee ] the 4 line gas tanks were used in 71 & later , you should be able to use a 71 system in the car if you can locate 71 parts to use , the 71 had the second breather line to the valve cover

My 70 challenger has the vapor recovery system on it too. they used rubber lines to connect them and mine had crimp on clamps untill I had to replace all the lines. check here for a rplacement seperator for the trunk.  themoparshop.com trying to find the valve cover cap might be a problem though, it took me 2 years to find the correct one.
