Default Where can I find a new stock fuel rail schrader valve ?

I stopped in to Advanced auto parts and we could not find a new schrader valve or cap for my stock Ls-1 fuel rail.

I am switching from getting fuel off the rail for the n2o to a stand alone.

I guess I could get a what is that -3 AN cap ? and just put that on the fuel rail but I would rather find a stock schrader valve so I can relieve the fuel pressure.

I would see if you could grab one out of the salvage yard. Most vehicles use the same valve. Also you could find a small one out of a valve stem

DO NOT USE A TIRE VALVE!!! The valve seat is made of a rubber type of product and are not designed to be in contact with fuel, nor are not able to handle the increased pressure of the fuel system. Get the proper valve form the dealer or auto shop that repairs EFI fuel systems.

If you can't find a new schrader valve or decide not to cap it, I have a stock LS1 fuel rail with a new schrader valve that I'd sell for cheap. It would be shipping from FL, not sure where you are. You can PM me if you're interested.
