Anyone got a photo of one of these as per original?
Looking to see how the PCV and vacuum advance hoses run.
9/73 on HQ is similar but has a rod throttle not cable.
Problem I have is the hoses are interfering with the throttle cable and spring, wondering how GMH did it.
LH Torana is different as it has a RH front PCV, HJ is LH rear. HJ PCV moves to RH front with canister introduction on 1/1/75.
I have half of the original PCV hose as it was cut when the 650 Holley was fitted. Now have original Quadrajet back on and repro PCV hose I bought looks the same size and shape as the original half.
I also have the original vacuum advance hose but had to take it off as the HEI I fitted has to be rotated 90deg anti-clockwise so the module clears the intake, thus the hose is too short.

I know you don't recommend relying on brochures, but does the engine pic on the early HJ sandman brochure help? I'm talking about the one with the red van and yellow ute, I think it is from October 74 (from memory)
