Hi,

I'm planning on restoring my fuel system. It is a California car, with ECS (or at least it once did). I see that restoration lines are available, but is the vapor tower (I think that's what it's called), the capped off pipe that is located on the right side of the trunk?

Thanks

The system requires:

Vapor Lines
3 nipple valve cover breather
ECS fuel tank
ECS fuel filler neck
ECS gas tank
ECS Vapor Separator
Carb with bowl vent to nipple (not atmosphere)
Shielding for vapor lines

ECS Vapor Separator is not a reproduced item but I am sure I have a used one if needed.

Thank, those help, a lot. I guess, in addition to the separator, I will need that shield. Are those repopped?

Not sure if they are and they are different between 70 and 71.

Cuda won't have the fill tube with the nipple. That was Challenger only.

No 71 E body has hose nipples on the front of the tank. There is only 2 tanks for a 71 E - cuda or Challenger
