WTB: Intake Housing - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Scrrem · 04-02-2009

Looking to buy or find a source for an new plastic intake housing for a 1990 ZR-1. Mine is cracked at the seams on both sides. I have had one on order with Zip Products for over six weeks. They can't seem to locate one or give an estimated time of delivery.

You might consider calling Tonys Corvette Shop and ask them if they have any new or used housings. Tony has a bunch of trailers where he stores old parts.

I think you may have a lot of us stumped on this one. I say this because all of the direct mounted air intake components (intake horn, throttle body, plenum, injector housings) on the ZR-1's LT5 engine are made out of aluminum. By chance are you referring to the air cleaner housing mounted on top of the radiator that looks something like this?

Opps...

I guess I used the wrong term, but yes, that's the piece I'm looking for. Sorry for the confusion

Hey I have a used one, Its not in perfect shape but its not cracked.

If you want to see pics let me know
This is a original 90 intake housing, the one that they sell has a extra nipple on the LH side and you do not need that nipple,

Ill take $65 plus shipping for it.
