Heater hose update - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Hey everyone, I have been digging through some old threads and looking into a few small mods. I wanted to do the heater hose relocation on my 2011 SS. Is this the only part that I need? A heater hose from a 2012?

I see a bunch of old threads and they mention an evap relocation and fuel line. Excuse my blind ignorance on the subject. I believe the fuel line is part of the fuel rail flip though. Any of you fine gentlemen who have done the mod that can weigh in on the subject and point me in the right direction?

Thank you in advance.

This is where I relocated my evap. Pretty easy & it really cleans up the mess.

That's all you need for the hose relocation. Cleans it up real nice. And for the fuel rail flip, it's all you do is flip it 180 degrees. As for the evap relocation, I didn't do that, but my tune shop deleted mine when we did the LOD manifold install. Cleaned up everything!!

I did the heater hose reroute on mine a few years ago. You can just get two generic hoses with a 90 elbow and they work just as well and are completely out of the way. Look for an old thread that shows the Napa part #.

Thanks everyone! Greatly appreciate the feedback.

It looks like you already have your answer, but I'll +1 everyone else and say yes. You need the 2012+ heater hoses and that's it.

Yes!!

Oh, forgot to mention, if you do the fuel rail flip mod, I and others on here used the braided fuel feed line for a C5 Vette.

Is there any parts needed for the fual rail swap minus the fuel hose?

No sir, just that braided fuel feed hose for the C5 vette.. Because the old stock way the fuel rail was fed from the driver side, flip it and the rail is fed from the passenger side and the "extra" hose going over the top of the manifold is eliminated and cleans it up. It's a fairly simple mod.
