I think I have asked this before but thought I would try again. Does anyone know where to get the crossover tube (comes from the drivers side manifold and goes over the front of the engine)? It is a discontinued item and mine has a crack in it. Someone had a couple a while back but had got rid of them. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Tom |

Two places have them Bill Hodel his number is 330-832-0871 and the last time I checked he wanted $175.00. Then there is Greenhoe 330-723-0899 and they want $175.00 also. How bad is it cracked, can it be welded? donald |

Thanks for the names. I thought about welding it, the crack is about 1" long and kind of smashed in a little bit. I may give it a try first. Is Greehoee a company? Thanks, Tom |

Dont know about Mr Bill Hodel, But I do know Greenhoes want a LOT of green for just about anything they have.The are way overpriced.If you do a lot of legwork(actually Fingerwork) you can find just about anything you need. Try using J.B. weld ,I have had good results with that on items similer to that. |

They may be proud but the only two I could find, and I have been looking for quite a while were from Greenhoe and Hodel, both are asking the same price. Repairing is always an alternative, brassing sp. is what I suggested first. Pressure is very minimal in that tube. However, if you are trying to Top Flight the car, the alternatives are few. I was luck enough to be able to reuse my old one and have it re-plated. donald |
