Here is where to obtain this part.

FYI, It is nitrile rubber, not silicone.

Hah! Turns out I did order one from you last year, as there was a leak there previously. Perhaps last idiot mechanic screwed it up on installation, or never actually replaced it? Are any of the lines connected to it known to fail?

I am not aware of any of the pipes failing per se, but they do need to be straight to make the most effective seal. If the pipes have been bent previously to use 2 pieces of hose (before we had the Connector manufactured), then they should be carefully straightened to be parallel with each other.

Thanks, Jerry.

Putting my order together now. Already added that, plus a backup set of plenum gaskets. You should actually just automatically include a set of plenum gaskets every time someone orders. Always need a backup set with a ZR-1.

Doesn?t look totally straight to me. Thoughts?

btw, what should I remove to make this thing easiest to access?
