You're on to a good thing here, FJ. Installed them today on my 72 GT, and just got home from a 'dark road' roll. HUGE improvement in visibility. Made me think I was in my wife's newer Audi!

If you want original, I would recommend the factory dual snorkel. Not exactly inexpensive, but correct. And I think they look best (personal preference).

You can also find some single snorkel...

My only complaint with the single pot is what happens when you have a slow leak somewhere? One stop, you have brakes. The next stop, you don't.

My 74 Bonne has the canister and full setup you're describing, and it does not smell near as bad as all my other Pontiac's.

That's what the liquid/vapor separator you have there is designed to do. The three vent nipples from the tank hook up to it, and the fourth line off of it runs up to the carbon canister in...

Be happy, because you have the Muncie M-13 there. Since it's original to the car (GT-37), it should have come equipped with the "Heavy Duty" Muncie M-13 behind the 350. The 3 speed only has one...
