90* silicone TB hose.

90* silicone TB hose.

What are you guys doing that run stock TB’S.
The stock TB measures about 3-7/8,
a 4” silicone 90* is a sloppy fit.

I can pull it down with a T-bolt clamp
but I’m **** about details like this.

Did you find that the fit was loose?
Did you have to pull it down with the clamp?

I can weld a bead on the TB.
I was just wondering if there was a source for one that fit better than
the run of the mill 4".

Just clamp the T-bolt down

Only piece that really needs the ring is the truck MAF, but most cheapo cone filters come with several reducer rings. Maybe put one of the bigger rings on your TB and stretch the silicone over it
