sounded like your leak could come from 2 places. behind the dist. there is an o-ring it could have leak from there, the other is you cam seal. go to advance auto and the a complete kit make by fel pro. it would have all the (8) groumets, (4)dizzy tube seals, and valve cover gasket for $16.00 plus tax. just order 2 more from them .

Go to someplace like Napa and ask reinforced hose to what diameter you need. only thing is that if you don't have a bead where you connecting two pipes more likely there just gonna blow off from the boost. Just buy some jb weld and make some beads around the ends of your charge pipes and be done with it.
