The 71 Cuda uses a tube with 5 lines on it. Four go directly to the tank and the fifth goes up front connected to the valve cover breather.

When mounted in the car, the forward-most tube goes to the front of the car. The other four go straight over to the gas tank if you have a correct 1971 gas tank.

As already stated, vapor return line runs from the passenger side valve cover all the way back to the vent tube in the trunk.  If I remember correctly the connections are as follows . . .

- Breather with a hose fitting in the passenger side valve cover
- Piece of rubber hose from breather fitting to the passenger side inner fender mounted hard line
- Piece of rubber hose from passenger side inner fender mounted hard line to the main hard line which runs the length of the car
- Piece of rubber hose from the main hard line to the vent tube going into the trunk

Maybe some of these photos will help . . .
