Default DV install question

The outlets on my stock DV fit inside the ones on my Forge 007... How am I supposed to get it to go back into the stockhoses?
And do I need to tee in the nippple on the top of the valve to another vacuum line?

I did mine yesterday (Forge007 as well) and when I finally got the 1 time clamps off the Forge slid right into the stock hoses no problem. If you have trouble the DIY info I used said to spread a small amount ofoil to lube the DV inlets.as far as a tee in the vac line not too sure what your askin there cause the stock DV had 3 hoses and I hooked upthe Forge the same way the stock was.

Pulled off the wrong part...
The diverter valve looks a little trickier to get to than what I pulled...

To get the 1 time clamp off, disconnect the other hoses first...And then just muscle that bastard off.

The one-time clamps are a PITA, but once you get them off, it's real easy to put everything back in place.

i had hell getting those one time clamps off.. there is a trick to it, you need a L shaped pick to slide in there and bust them off but there is little room by the DV, i found that a dremel tool solved my problems [:@]

for the top piece, i just cut it off at the nipple and zip tied it on to my R1... no problems

Hacksaw blade.
Jacked the car up a foot, set my head up and sawed. Took awhile so I just got in a comfy position.
