| Its a 96 Impala SS and its a Grey plastic tee with one end connected to heater hose to the fire wall, the other end connected to hose going to heater hose to intake, and the bottom of the tee has a hose permently crimped on to it that attaches to the bottom of the coolant overflow bottle. Ill try to get you a picture of it tomorrow. Thanks | |

| What mike has there might be better. Not too expensive if you want new. I'd go that route myself. | |

| I might have one left over from the dggm b4u caprice. It only had 53k miles on it. I'll look tomorrow in the bins of parts. | |

| Less expensive alternative:
1. GM "T" #12522867, $12
2. Hose from overflow tank to heater hose: NAPA #11625--$10
I have used this setup twice, works great.

| Just did this over the weekend on my RMW. I replaced it wth brass plumbing parts, cost about $30, but will outlast the car. Pickup a 3/4" brass T, 2x 3/4" - 3/4" barb fittings, and 1x 3/4" - 5/8" barb fitting. | |
