Hi,

I am curious to know if the Air Cleaner  Air Heat Hose that connects to the heat stove elbow to the air cleaner was originally a flexible aluminum tube or metal elbow? If made of metal, does anyone know where I may be able to locate one?

Thanks

Flex tube. Check out ebay item #271014884900. This is the tube, it may be available elsewhere.

Hi mcox8051,

Most auto parts stores carry replacement tubing like you need. Might check locally if you haven't already. Just a quick look shows the Paragon Corvette has them. Other vendor will also.

Bair's Corvettes also shows to have it, in a black color....and Bair's is a C3VR sponsoring vendor.
