    I just used the standard AE71 variety and cut it shorter.

    Yea Pretty much your best bet is to mock something up the same shape you want (coat hanger or something) and go to supercheap to find the best thing you can use to cut up.

    not sure if ksevs are the same but on my ze in the 86 i used a hose off a 2lt ford telstar (or 2lt turbo 626) no cutting went straight on! touches the dip stick just a bit but is not in the way. I just went to sprints with a bent bit of wire and they helped me out.
