Anyone know where I can find the gasket that goes between the throttle body and the plenumn? Pelican or GPR don't carry it. Is it still available or will I have to make one?
Thanks |

yeah, it's not really a fun one to find, VSG 914 is right, it's something you have to be creative with. I'm actually in the same boat as you right now, but I have a different idea than just making one out of gasket material. I was able to find a gasket from a 1.7 bus engine that was brand new. The diameter of the gasket is a little large, so i'm going to cut out a small section and use a little RTV to glue it back together to the proper size. So if you could find a similar gasket maybe you can just modify it like the one i'm gona try and do. Hard to say, good luck!
